- A video of a Nigerian man warning U.S. President Donald Trump and American soldiers against attacking Nigeria has gained attention online.
- In the clip, he says Nigeria should not be treated like other nations and claims local mosquitoes would harm foreign troops, drawing mixed reactions amid ongoing tensions over U.S.–Nigeria security issues.
A video circulating on social media has sparked reactions online after a Nigerian man issued a warning to Donald Trump and American soldiers, expressing local concerns about potential foreign military intervention.
In the clip, shared on X, the speaker urged the United States to exercise caution and insisted that Nigeria should not be treated like other nations historically affected by foreign intervention, such as Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, and Venezuela.
The speaker also made an unusual comment suggesting that if U.S. forces were to wage war in Nigeria, local mosquitoes would bite the soldiers and infect them with malaria, leading to their deaths — a remark that drew both humour and concern on social media.
In the video, the speaker said: “Mr. Donald Trump, let me be aware that Nigeria is not Vietnam. Nigeria is not Afghanistan. Nigeria is not Iraq. Nigeria is not Iran. Nigeria is not Venezuela. If you attempt to encourage and make aggression and send your armed forces to Nigeria to wage war, ah, it is an unscrupulousness. But be aware that our mosquitoes are waiting for your soldiers they will bite them and infect them with malaria fever to die instantly.”
The video comes amid tense global discussions over U.S. threats of potential military action linked to security issues in Nigeria, including the killing of civilians and extremist violence, which U.S. officials have highlighted in recent months.
Reactions to the clip were mixed, with some users praising the speaker’s bold stance and others questioning the practicality of such warnings in the context of international diplomacy.
