A Bigger Nigerian Scam than "419"

Media largely ignoring Nigerian plea for guns to defend themselves [More
I would think the government would be largely ignoring it, too.

I'm just not getting where GunPolicy.org, generally a good source for global gun laws (it's ultimate purpose to support citizen disarmament notwithstanding) gets off telling us "The regulation of guns in Nigeria is categorised as permissive."

Really? By whom, Michael Bloomberg?

Because, as we then learn:

Guns in Nigeria are regulated by the President
What could go wrong?  But wait, as Billy Mays used to say, there's more!

In Nigeria, civilians are not allowed to possess machine-guns, military rifles and handguns
Add to that licensing, a need to prove "genuine need," registration, and hell, it sounds like MILM Paradise over there. Until such time as some anti-human hive insect characterizes that as "permissive" and starts closing "loopholes"...
