In reaction to a tweet by Naija stories, Ayoola’s invention was welcomed by many Nigerians.


Nigerians on Twitter called on the Federal government to immediately give recognition to Ayoola’s invention, saying that it will help to fight terrorism in the North.

However, Philip Ochika wrote, “Give it to the FG. They will sell it to terrorists. Wait until a PhD holder in criminology becomes president, maybe Nigerian Govt will be serious about insecurity.”
