A Nigerian man has expressed his distress after his neighbor allegedly brought soldiers to his house at midnight to discipline him for making noise while playing Call of Duty.
In a video that quickly gained attention on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the man recounted how his neighbor summoned soldiers to handle the disturbance caused by his late-night gaming session. According to the man, the soldiers came to his house during the early hours of the morning to address the issue of noise from his gameplay and shouting while playing the popular video game.
The man, who appeared visibly upset, also displayed injuries on his body as he recounted how the soldiers had allegedly beaten him. He emotionally said, “They beat me to death, soldiers flogged me. For a house that isn’t even his father’s. Imagine, your own neighbor.” The man seemed to feel deeply betrayed by his neighbor’s actions and expressed his shock at being treated in such a way.
The video quickly went viral, with many online users expressing concern and offering their opinions on the situation. As the video circulated, it sparked various reactions in the comment section, where people shared their thoughts on the severity of the incident and the unusual involvement of soldiers in a noise complaint issue.
