Rakeem Ayomide Mkambala, the newborn son of popular Nigerian influencer Priscilla Ojo, has become an instant internet sensation, racking up massive attention on social media within days of his arrival.
Born on Sunday, Rakeem’s entry into the world was accompanied by an outpouring of love from fans and well-wishers. But what has shocked many is the speed at which his Instagram account has grown. Just one hour after his birth was announced, Rakeem had already surpassed 50,000 followers.
As of the time of this report, checks by Best Lagos revealed that the infant’s follower count has skyrocketed to over 166,000, making him one of the fastest-growing celebrity babies on the platform.
The buzz surrounding Rakeem is not surprising, considering the star power of his parents. His mother, Priscilla Ojo, is a well-known Nigerian influencer and daughter of Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo, while his father, Juma Jux, is a celebrated Tanzanian singer with a strong East African fan base.
Recall that Priscilla and Jux tied the knot in a traditional wedding ceremony held in Lagos State on April 17, 2025. Their love story, which reportedly began after they met during a business trip to Rwanda, has continued to capture public attention.
With Rakeem’s online presence already breaking records, fans are eager to see how the newborn will grow under the spotlight of two influential entertainment families.
