2027: ‘Follow me for latest updates, exclusive contents’ – Kwankwaso urges Nigerians as he joins TikTok

The vice-presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has joined TikTok as he steps up his social media presence ahead of the 2027 general election.

Kwankwaso announced his arrival on the platform in a post on his X handle on Wednesday, urging Nigerians to follow his account and engage with his videos.

He said his TikTok account would provide followers with authentic information, the latest updates and exclusive content about his daily activities.

Kwankwaso is expected to run alongside the NDC’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, in the 2027 general election.

“I am on TikTok! I encourage you all to follow me there for authentic information, the latest updates, and exclusive contents directly related to my daily life.

“Nigeria will be OK. — RMK,” he wrote.

In a video attached to the post, the former Kano State governor also welcomed users to his account and encouraged them to follow and share his content.

“Hello TikTokers, welcome to our TikTok account. Turn on your notifications, follow us, share our video, thank you, and God bless you,” he said.

Kwankwaso’s move comes as the NDC steps up preparations for the 2027 presidential election, in which he is expected to run alongside Obi on the party’s ticket.

The two opposition figures formally joined the NDC in May after leaving the African Democratic Congress (ADC), following consultations over their political future and the party’s zoning arrangement.

Obi was subsequently ratified as the NDC’s presidential candidate at its national convention on May 30, with Kwankwaso named as his running mate. The ticket brings together Obi’s political support base and Kwankwaso’s Kwankwasiyya movement, which has a strong presence in Kano and other parts of the North.

The party recently unveiled its National Campaign Council ahead of the 2027 election, with its National Leader, Senator Henry Seriake Dickson, named chairman and Obi appointed co-chairman. Kwankwaso was named co-vice-chairman, while Ibrahim Hussain Abdulkarim was appointed Director-General of the campaign council.

The campaign council is expected to coordinate the party’s nationwide campaign activities and mobilisation ahead of the election.
