A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Adams Garba, on Saturday, said Iran embarrassed the Israeli government led by Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu.
Garba said Israel’s failed war has shown that Iran is the Superpower in the Middle East.
Israel had launched direct airstrikes against Iran.
The attack is a high-stakes retaliatory one that could bring the Middle East closer to a regional war.
The Guardian UK reports that at least seven explosions were reported over Iran’s capital, Tehran and nearby Karaj just after 2.30am local time on Saturday.
Israeli jets were said to have struck what were described as “military targets” in Iran.
Reacting, Garba posted on X: “Practically all Israel attacks on Iran were repelled by Iranian Air Defense. Iran lost just 2 soldiers in the attack.
“This was a huge embarrassment to the government of Benjamin Natanyahu.
“In fact this proves beyond reasonable doubt that it is Iran, not Israel that is the preeminent superpower in the Middle East. Israel’s military capabilities are all propaganda.
“It can only be effective on innocent people of Gaza and defenceless people of Lebanon.”
