The headline seems to indicate "nukes" as in nuclear weapons but the article just says "nuclear power."

A big difference in subtle wording... bad writing on the part of the author.

Not really, while the wording is vague, the offer came from a military man to a military man. I think the implication that they are talking about weapons rather than power generation is obvious, especially since Nigeria is rather oil rich.

Considering the offer was made by Pakistan's top general in the context of "strengthen its military capability", I don't think we are talking about "Atoms for Paece" here.
