TEHRAN, Iran – Na wah! This one no be small matter again o! Iran deputy foreign minister, Saeed Khatibzadeh, don talk say their country still dey intact, even as dem admit say US and Israeli strikes don pepper their facilities for this year. E clear say dem get wahala but dem no wan carry face enter ground, rather dem dey hold their ground like paddy paddy!
Saeed yan am well for CNN during one interview, as he declare say, “Our peaceful nuclear program no dey shakey,” and dem go protect am like jealously guarded pepper soup recipe! (No be joke, abeg). He come dey assure say, even with all the theater of war, communication and machinery dey well placed across the country wey happen to get over 90 million people – big city no be beans!
So, make we talk true, as we sabi the gist, after dem collect wahala for three nuclear sites wey include Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan in June, the level of dem destruction still dey hang like unanswered quiz. President Trump even go talk say Fordow don scatter finish, but later report come show say the facilities only get minor body blow, enough to delay dem for like two years. Na wah!
Meanwhile, Iran foreign minister Abbas Araghchi don clear say no uranium dey kick-start right now because dem facilities don face heavy challenge. The International Atomic Energy Agency even don carry report come say, “Checking Iran’s highly enriched uranium stock na long overdue” matter, since their inspectors never fit reach dem bombed nuclear spots. So, the plot thickens.”
We still hear say Khatibzadeh yan say Iran dey work on military programs to defend their national interest. If you sabi the tension wey dey for Middle East, you go understand say e no be play play matter. He come confirm say dem dey upgrade dem missile program behind closed doors as Israel been dey deal with dem from June. E be like say dem don dey gather strength like Lion dey prepare for next hunt. Dem say even China dey chip in help to boost dem ballistic missile project, and we no go lie, dat one fit shake ground!
As the drama dey unfold, Khatibzadeh sabi well that negotiating with America go dey depend on whether Iran fit still go ahead pursue uranium enrichment. Dem no gree for any talk wey go carry dem back from making progress: “Stop the nonsense about zero enrichment in Iran,” he dey yarn like man wey dey stand for hin right!
Even as this matter dey hot, Khatibzadeh strong on say Iran dey open for trade with China and Russia, no be today mistakes dey end. E still dey ginger dem people, say no matter wetin happen, Iran na the oldest civilization wey dey survive all these palava. This na serious declaration because no country fit just pack wahala enter dem territory and expect say everything go dey peachy. Na wetin dem dey talk – survival na the name of the game!
