| Shiite/Army Clash: Iran recalls envoy, Saheed Kozechi as diplomatic row brews |
A diplomatic row is brewing between Nigeria and Iran. It has emerged that the Islamic Republic of Iran has recalled its ambassador to Nigeria, Mr Saheed Kozechi, Wednesday. Although, no reason was given by the country’s External Affairs Ministry, a very reliable source has informed that Kozechi was recalled as a fallout of Iranian government displeasure with Nigeria army's brutality on Shiite muslims in Kaduna State.
