A Nigerian lady has gone viral on social media after unveiling a self-made “war armour” she claims to have welded in preparation for a rumored “US military invasion” of Nigeria.
In a video circulating online, the lady is seen proudly wearing the metallic outfit, describing it as her “defense mechanism” against any foreign attack. The makeshift armour, reportedly crafted from welded iron sheets and bolts, sparked a mix of amusement and concern among Nigerians on social media.
While some netizens praised her creativity and engineering effort, others mocked the idea, calling it a humorous reflection of the misinformation spreading online regarding alleged US military plans in Africa.
Authorities have not issued any statement regarding the video, but experts have repeatedly dismissed claims of an impending invasion as fake news and social media panic.
The viral incident adds to growing online conversations about Nigeria’s security and the influence of misinformation in shaping public perception.
