A Nigerian grandmother has gone viral after a TikTok video captured her refusing to open her door for her grandson, insisting that he did not clearly identify himself.


The clip sparked widespread reactions across social media, with many viewers relating to the humorous exchange.
In the video, the grandson is seen knocking repeatedly, expecting his grandmother to let him in without hesitation.

Many online users have praised the grandmother for her cautious approach, noting that her insistence on proper identification reflects the rising concerns about the security state in the country.
Below are some of the comments;
