Baby Rakeem Ayomide Mkambala, the new grandson of Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo, has become an instant social media sensation, amassing over 100,000 followers on Instagram just hours after his page was unveiled.
Rakeem, born to Nigerian influencer Priscilla Ojo and Tanzanian music star Juma Jux, made his Instagram debut on Sunday under the handle @rakeem_mk.
His account gained traction after Iyabo Ojo announced the birth on her page, proudly declaring herself the “sexiest grandma in town.”
Priscilla also confirmed in a recent post on Monday that her son was delivered on Sunday, quashing online rumours that she had secretly given birth weeks earlier.
“Prince Rakeem Ayomide Mkambala….24.08.25,” the actress’ daughter wrote
While the baby’s face has not been revealed, fans are eagerly awaiting his first photo with his face, as recent ones online are blurred by his family members.
So far, Rakeem’s page features only a collaborative post with his mother, managed directly by his parents.
Despite the limited content, the follower count has already surpassed 112,000, with the majority of fans from Nigeria and Tanzania.
Rakeem is also attracting attention for his unique identity, holding ties to three nationalities: Nigerian, Tanzanian, and Canadian.
Iyabo Ojo, who is currently in Canada with her daughter, announced that a naming ceremony will take place in Lagos.
Meanwhile, congratulatory messages from fans, colleagues, and friends of the Ojo and Mkambala families have continued to pour in across social media.
