“Boko Haram in Nigeria and
Al-Shabaab in the Horn of Africa are similar with Al-Qaeda and ISIS in parts of
the Middle East using similar methods of operations to cause havoc to the
people of the two regions. Iran is therefore willing to use its experience in
dealing with terror groups to assist in combatting these groups in Africa,“ Mr
Amin said.
