Tinubu 2027? Campaign Allegedly Begins With Plantain Chips
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s 2027 campaign may have unofficially allegedly begun — and plantain chips are at the center of it all.
A viral video posted by user @ChuksEricE on X (formerly Twitter) shows jars and sachets of plantain chips branded with President Tinubu’s image and the slogan: “Door 2 Door, Jagaban for 2027.” The clip, which has quickly gained traction online, features what appears to be a snack distribution point with the campaign materials prominently displayed.
Interestingly, the man believed to be behind the plantain chip production clarified in the video that he’s not affiliated with any campaign effort. According to him, he was simply contracted to print the packaging — not to endorse any political figure.
Despite the denial, the video has ignited widespread speculation and debate, with many Nigerians interpreting it as the start of an early campaign — and using food as a strategic tool.
Reactions from Nigerians
As expected, the online community had a lot to say:
