Hundreds of members of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN) on Sunday staged a protest in Kano over the reported killing of Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei.<\/p>\n

The demonstrators, carrying Iranian flags and portraits of Khamenei, marched through parts of the city in what they described as a solidarity action following the joint U.S.\u2013Israeli strikes that reportedly led to the Iranian leader\u2019s death.<\/p>\n
