Linc Edochie, son of legendary Nigerian actor, Pete Edochie, has issued a stern warning to youths in northern Nigeria following protests over the reported death of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was said to have been killed in a joint airstrike allegedly carried out by Israel and the United States.
The actor cautioned that those participating in the demonstrations must tread carefully, stressing that their actions could attract the wrath of the United States and its powerful allies toward Nigeria.
He said; “This may not be our direct concern, but what is happening in the world, let us take this matter to God in prayers. Whether it concerns us directly or we try to shy away from it, I’m sorry to say this: a third world war has formally begun.”
“This war may not be fought on conventional terms, in all honesty, but it’s going to be the deadliest the world has ever seen. And to some of those guys up North protesting over what is happening in Iran, please let us leave the streets.”
“You don’t want to provoke a superpower. If we draw their attention towards us, we’re in trouble. We cannot stand the fury of these countries. Let us just respect ourselves and manage our problems the way we are, please.”
