Former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi has launched a TikTok page, days after former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai joined the platform.
Obi made the announcement on Tuesday via his X handle, informing his supporters about his official presence on the social media app.
“This is my official and only TikTok page. Kindly join me towards building a new Nigeria that is possible,” Obi wrote.
The former Anambra State governor also shared a video encouraging people to follow him, reinforcing his vision of a “new Nigeria that is possible.”
Meanwhile, El-Rufai had set up his own TikTok page last Wednesday, using it to engage Nigerians on political issues and his association with the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
In a video introducing his page, he stated, “This is my only and official TikTok page. Please join me for videos, comments, and conversations on Nigerian politics, as well as the activities of our new party, Social Democratic Party (SDP). Welcome on board.”
El-Rufai’s TikTok presence gained rapid traction, amassing over 200,000 followers within a day. His bio on the platform describes him as an “accidental public servant, certified ruffler of feathers, and deliberate SDP member.”
His move to TikTok comes after his departure from the All Progressives Congress (APC).
