By Gideon Ayeni

A dramatic scene unfolded on a Nigerian road as a defiant driver was captured on video speeding off with a soldier hanging onto the bonnet of his moving car — an incident that has since gone viral on social media.
The video, which surfaced on X (formerly Twitter), showed the soldier clinging tightly to the vehicle’s bonnet while passengers inside the car were heard taunting him. Despite the soldier’s apparent attempt to stop the car, the driver refused to halt, instead accelerating while voices from inside the vehicle mocked the situation.
“You no wan hear word, we go show you,” one voice said. “If we reach a far place, we go drop you and see what you’ll do, because you be soldier, Abi?”
