Since his birth, Rakim has captured attention online. His Instagram page, @rakeem_mk, which is run by his parents, gained more than 100,000 followers within hours of being launched. The page also carried a short video announcing the child’s new Canadian citizenship, further exciting fans in both Nigeria and Tanzania.
Priscilla and Juma, who tied the knot earlier this year, first revealed they were expecting in July during a lavish gender-reveal celebration. The arrival of the Canadian passport is seen as another proud moment for the family, symbolising the baby’s ties to Nigeria, Tanzania, and Canada.
Fans and celebrities have flooded social media with congratulatory messages, celebrating what many describe as the beginning of a bright future for “Prince Rakim.”
