The War Dogs are the central intelligence service of Wakanda, tasked with collecting information across the globe to ensure the safety of the kingdom.[1]
History
As a War Dog, Prince N'Jobu was stationed in Oakland, California. His brother, King T'Chaka, sent Zuri as well to watch him. During his service, N'Jobu became convinced that Wakanda's isolationist policies were doing more harm than good and that people of African descent around the world were being oppressed. He then decided that the only course of action was to initiate a global revolution. To arm his cause, he revealed his country's existence to black-market arms dealer Ulysses Klaue and helped him infiltrate Wakanda in order to steal a cache of vibranium resulting in the deaths of several Wakandan citizens.
When T'Chaka found out about his brother betrayal, he came to Oakland and confronted him. However, N'Jobu attempted to shoot Zuri, so T'Chaka killed him.
Nakia took War Dog missions across the globe, making contacts and helping people. She believed that Wakanda could do more to help the the other nations as well. During one of her missions, she was transferred in a truck with several other women by armed men in Nigeria. She was rescued by Black Panther and Okoye.[2]
Trivia
- In the comics, the Hatut Zeraze, also known as the Dogs of War, were a group of spies and assassins that operated as Wakanda's intelligence until T'Challa banished them.
