Binance Executive Detained in Nigeria, Calls for US’ Assistance

American and former federal agent Tigran Gambaryan, now a Binance executive, who has been detained in Nigeria for over 70 days, has begged the US government to assist him.

Recall that Nigerian authorities, after inviting him for a business meeting, are allegedly demanding over $150 million for his release, threatening to transfer him to a prison holding terrorists.

In a viral video, he pleaded with the Nigerian government to release him, as he has not committed any crime.
