Popular Nigerian actor Linc Edochie has warned the northern part of the country against provoking superpower nations.

Linc Edochie gave the warning after some northern youths protested the death of the Iranian Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was reportedly killed on February 28, 2026, in a joint airstrike by Israel and the United States.

The conflict, however, escalated after Iran launched retaliatory strikes on Israeli and U.S. assets in Middle Eastern nations.

In solidarity with the development, pro-Iran protests broke out in some northern states of Nigeria.

Speaking in a video on his Facebook page, Linc warned protesters not to provoke superpower countries against Nigeria.

While opining that the ongoing conflict might turn into the deadliest in world history, the actor noted that Nigeria cannot stand the fury of the U.S. and Israel.

“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,” he said.
