Trouble Looms As Iran Military Threatens To "Visit" Nigeria Very Soon by Dmcool(m): 11:24am On Dec 17, 2015
The Iran military posted this on its Facebook page.

"The time when they could oppress Shias and get away
with it is long gone, we shall pay a visit to the puppet
regime in Nigeria soon, God willing."

Following the recent attack on a Shia Muslim group in Zaria by the Nigerian Army over the weekend, killing numerous people after a military convoy got stuck by a march, the Iran military has vow to "visit" Nigeria very soon.

The trouble began on Saturday, when thousands of members of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, a pro- Iranian Shia group, held a march in Zaria, in Kaduna State, to mark the birthday of the Prophet Mohammed.

The Nigerian Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Yusuf Buratai, and his convoy wound up trapped in the gridlock. According to some accounts, a metal object was thrown at the general's vehicle by someone in the crowd. Soldiers mistook the sound for gunshots and apparently thought it was part of an attempt to assassinate the general.

At any rate, soldiers in the convoy opened fire, killing a number of people. Members of the sect put the number at more than 100.

Sheik Zakzaky should just back down..last year, his 3 sons were murdered by the Army. How many heads rolled? A balls-less COAS ordered his troops to fire on a bunch of misguided teens carrying sticks. In a sane country, he would either resign or get kicked out in shame. If this shiites get out of hand, boko haram will be childsplay compared to what these folks will become. I can't believe we just voted out a corrupt and clueless government and replaced it with a directionless and hypocritical one..Buratai must resign.
