Since the conflict between Nigerian army and shia sect in zaria, things go sour between Nigeria and Iran, but how we go to this stage and what drag iran into the internal affairs of nigeria? Iran president personaly called Nigeria president in protest what he called the attack on sect shia and insisted on though investigation on the matter, then the foreigh ministry of Iran follow suite by summon the Nigeria ambasadorin iran in protest to the same matter, as if Nigeria is a deaf, the military head of Iran call on military retaliation on Nigeria, all because, Nigerian killed Nigerian, but what concern Iran? it's because iran is a shia state and shia sect in Nigeria is an iran interest, which must be protectedaccording to them!

Buhari and Buratai cos wahala for Kaduna, but they wan use Niger Delta oil money fund war against Iran. OP, don't even think that Iranians are dumb, they know who provoked them and if there would be any war between Nigeria and Iran, it would not stretch past the region responsible for it. 17 Likes 3 Shares |

oyinkinola: Guy this is preposterous. They will need a landing base to be able to fire at Nigeria, even at that, any nation that allows them a military base will be involving other third party states. They cannot interbalstic missiles from Iran to Nigeria, they will be assaulting several other countries sovereignty. THe much they can do is to empower their brothers and followers by smuggling in weapons and trying to continually destabilize the military and if possible the economic activities of the country. Even when they send the weapons, we will intercept them and use them to boost our armory. 6 Likes 1 Share |

GBADEYZ: My friend, you've gone too far. Comparing Iran with Nigeria in terms of war is as asinine as comparing cocaine with coca-cola. In Africa alone, Algeria will level all the cities in Nigeria within 4days while all missiles fired into Algeria from Nigeria would be intercepted by their “8 battalions of Russian S-300 denfense systems”. I cannot understand Y Nigeria cannot expend $1Billion to procure 6 Battalions of the Russian S-300 defense systems, 12 Russian SU-24 fighter jets and 12 BUK missile systems. If only I can lay my hands on Ebele Jonathan's neck, walahi, make I no talk make dem no ban me again. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Rally round the government? Dear, we don't have to. We didn't really rally round our soldiers when they embarked on killing spree in Zaria. They did it! Yes, they are champions. It won't be Iran vs Nigeria, it will be Shiite vs. Anti Shiite(NA). let our soldiers show them their prowess and military strength on the battlefield. Let them show them why over 500 citizens should die at a time without any sign of remorse. Let them know that our own COAS is a god that is above the man-made laws. And lastly, they mustn't forget to show Nigerians that they cannot lose a single man even when they are attacked because none of them did when they claimed they were attacked by the Shiites... By then, it would be just a CLASH between the Shiites and the NA. GOD BLESS THE NIGERIAN ARMY. 5 Likes |

Lordave: You already know wetin I wan do with his neck. Buhari has not bought those weapons due to lack of funds. GEJ on the other hand was in a better position to have procured those weapons & secure Nigeria from external aggressions when crude was being sold for over $110 per barrel but instead, he chose, along with his cronies to misappropriate those funds, thereby subjecting us to our present National quagmire. 4 Likes |

There wont be a war between iran and nigeria, however in the possibility of a war, iran will decimate nigeria within hours, who is going to defend nigeria? is it the military that runs from boko haram? However Iran might engage Nigeria government in cyber warfare and terror attacks which will be very very ugly. 2 Likes |

Iran cannot project force to Nigeria. They can't sustain it cos it's too far from home. They can only make noise in the middle east. Iran would need the a base close to Nigeria before the can do us any damage and am sure no African country would try that. The worst thing Iran can do is to smuggle weapons to Nigeria for their shiite group who are untrained. This would mean starting another Boko Haram war. 1 Like |
