Nigeria must bring to justice the perpetrators of Zaria massacre: Ayatollah Khamenei's advisor

Dec 20, 2015

Ayatollah Khamenei's senior adviser in International Affairs, in an interview with Khamenei.ir said: "We demand that the Nigerian government instantly prosecute the perpetrators of the Zaria massacre and bring them to justice for the barbarian crimes they have committed."

Speaking about the massacre of approximately one thousand people in Nigeria, Dr. Ali Akbar Velayati stated: "The news of the barbarian attack on Nigerian Muslims, which led to the killing and injury of a large number of believing and God-seeking people of the largest Islamic country in Africa, has created immense grief and sorrow for Muslims across the globe."

The senior advisor to Ayatollah Khamenei in International affairs brought up the killing of a large number of Muslims in Nigeria, including three sons of Nigerian Muslim leader, Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky, during a 2014 rally in support of Palestine on the international Quds day and further added: "The memory of the aggressive and violent measures as well as the barbaric killing of Muslims in Nigeria during the Quds Day rally in the month of Ramadan last year is still alive."

"The only sin these innocent protesters had committed," said Dr. Velayati, "was supporting Palestine and opposing the decades-long crimes of the Zionist regime and the occupation of Muslims' first Qiblah."

Dr. Velayati further cited that " Without a doubt, the massive 2015 Arbaeen procession--the yearly remembrance of the martyrdom of Imam Hussain (pbuh), the grandson of the Holy Prophet of Islam--held by millions of the followers and lovers of the progeny of the Prophet (peace be upon them), provoked the Zionist regime and the Wahabbi aggressors (who are the survivors of the Umayyad caliphate in our time) to support an unprecedented and felonious attack on Muslims."

The senior advisor to Ayatollah Khamenei in international affairs expressed condolences to the families and the survivors of the agonizing disaster and said: "We pray for the health of the honorable scholar Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky, the great leader of the Islamic Awakening movement in Nigeria and his respected family, as well as those wounded in this painful incident."

"Accordingly, all Muslims who are held in prison under medieval tortures must be released and we ask the Nigerian government to immediately prosecute, arrest and bring to justice the perpetrators of this disaster for the barbaric crimes they have committed," he emphasized.

Dr. Velayati said: "We are certain that the blood of the martyrs of the recent disaster will bring greater insight and awareness among the general public and will also reinforce truth-seeking in the continent of Africa."

The senior advisor to Ayatollah Khamenei in international affairs added: "While the community of Sheikh Ibrahim Zakzaky in Zaria is comprised of mostly Shia Nigerians, Sunni and Christian Nigerians were also dedicated to and joined his efforts to grow a peaceful, educated and dedicated network of persons who worked to bring stability to Nigeria."

Dr. Velayati said: "Because the efforts of Sheikh Zakzaky to reflect the true nature of Imam Hussein’s message, there is no conflict between the various schools of thought that make up the community, and they are able to work in unity and solidarity, despite their various religious practices."

Whenever they want to avenge the killings of their shia brothers, they should limit it to the north. We southerners won't bleed for ourselves and also bleed for sunnis. No be we kill muhammad abeg. Mbanu!

which nuclear strike? I can tell you about 5 countries that want Iran dead Lolzz, If not because of Russia providing assistance to Iran, Iran would have been wiped out long time ago. Let Iran mistakenly strike Nigeria and watch how Isreal will level Iran within few days. Don't let me talk about America intention now. Iran is only existing at the mercy of Russia. Those Isreali are just waiting for a little slip up from Iran so Let Iran Bark from now till tommorrow, the last thing they woul do is to use military approach. #NukeNigeriaAtYourOwnPeril

Iranians are educated and use the social media unlike you sunni almajiris. They will attack the sunnis that killed their shia brothers. They know we christians in the south are with the shias on this, it is the same sunni army that killed christian prostesters in the south, blame your sunni buhari for dividing the country.

And what makes you think the soldiers are northerners? Most of the recruites are southerners and the Iranians should be able to notice that. I have so many things to tell you about your mentality but I can't because a particular mod is monitoring me. The best answer for you is "k". Check my signature for more information

I don't care what you think. I'm also being very diplomatic with you because of the mods. Iranians know that BUHARI AND BURATAI who are sunnis killed their shia brothers. Any christian, southerner that decides to become abobuku for the sunnis is on his own. Buhari has divided the country, he is only reaping what he sowed and he will finish reaping it in the FULLNESS OF TIME.

Iran knows PMB's weaknesses hence the intimidation

I wonder why people are making this Iran more than it really is, Iran attack Nigeria from thousands of miles away? some people really are jokers, same way they Iran made too much talk against Iraq and found out the hard way? Imagine! And Iraq is right next door! I laugh is Persian.

This one thinks anyone gives a damn about nigeria. A country whose only usefulness (oil) on world stage is dwindling faster than gravity. Do you know the current price of oil. Why should isreal fight your wars for you? Why did they all refuse to sell you arms? So you want them to give you arms so your nigerian sunni army will transfer it to boko in the guise of fleeing the warfront. Do you think everyone is senseless?

Funding a proxy war in northern nigeria is easy as Alqueda smuggling cocaine and arms in northern mali using the tuaregs as they are currently doing.

thousands of miles away, you say?? Aircraft carrier can be in our backyard, on the waters between Nigerian territorial waters and international waters in a jiffy. It is quite easy to launch an attack from the sea if they can't find a suitable land base.

Israel huh, like hell!!!!! What are we bargaining with, Israel isn't a Christian or Muslim country, is it our dwindling and almost useless oil,.... What will be our bargaining chip here bro?? Maybe a land for their airbase and we will end up being their puppet.

They would not do that. haba
The worst they can do is fight by proxy, establish hezbollah/the brotherhood in Nigeria. Just as they are currently doing in Yemen, Iraq and Syria.

Our world class army can't even get rid of boko haram, now they want to add Hezbollah to the mix.

When a boko haram dies for islam's course, he gets 72 Arab virgins with blue eyes in heaven; when an Hezbollah dies for the course of Islam, they become Matyr. They both have philosophies that keeps their men fighting.

What a meaningless way to die. Hope they wouldn't, seems all this terrorist wars are to test newly produced ammunitions for efficiency.

Thats a Very senseless and unpatriotic post.

Mr Oam4j isnt this guy supporting violence?

The midget sunni El rufia---An aggressor did a national broadcast that El zakzaky and his shia movement been oppressed and massacred by the sunni controlled military will yet face a sunni judiciary for total annihilation.

Didn't Iran get the memo? Someone should forward them the broadcast and sanusi lamido sanusi speeches too.
