Iran Calls On Nigeria To Stop Crackdown On Shiites

    Iran has called on Nigerian
    authorities to respect religious figures and sites following two days of deadly
    persecution against the country’s Shia Muslims.
    “Nigeria… is now dealing with
    problems arising from extremism and Takfiri terrorism and we hope that in these
    conditions preservation of calm and national unity in battling terrorism is
    prioritized while rash and unconstructive measures are avoided,” IRNA quoted
    Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman Hossein Jaber-Ansari as saying on Sunday.
    Jaber-Ansari expressed sorrow over
    the recent bloody clashes, which broke out between Muslim 
    worshipers and government
    troops on Saturday.
