The image is not altered. It’s a real screenshot from a BBC report (BBC Afrique / BBC News Pidgin) featuring Nagi Susan Chizhim (also referred to as Susan Nagi), a Nigerian hairstylist and makeup artist.
She has a long-standing case of rhinoscleroma, a rare chronic bacterial infection caused by Klebsiella rhinoscleromatis. It primarily affects the nose and upper respiratory tract but can spread; in her case it progressed over roughly 20 years of adult life, producing severe swelling/proptosis of the eyes. The condition is documented in medical literature, endemic in parts of Africa and elsewhere, and requires prolonged close contact in poor-hygiene settings to transmit (low infectivity). It is treatable with long-term antibiotics, though advanced cases can need surgery.
She has spoken publicly about the stigma, lost educational opportunities, medical challenges (including referrals that would have required travel for specialist care), and how she continues working as a bridal hairstylist/makeup artist. BBC covered her story in Pidgin and French-language versions earlier in 2026; the clip/screenshot circulating matches that coverage.
