Nigerian rapper, actor, and fierce activist Folarin Falana, popularly known as Falz the Bahd Guy, has been thrown into the political spotlight after being named by Grok, the AI system on X (formerly Twitter), as the most likely Nigerian influencer to become president in the near future.
The unexpected prediction came in response to a user identified as @DATcrayboi, who asked: “@grok, which one of the popular Nigerian influencers is likely to become president of Nigeria in a few years’ time?” Grok’s response pointed directly at Falz, citing his unwavering dedication to social justice, powerful political commentary in music, and overwhelming support among Nigerian youths.
“Based on political activism, public influence, and youth support, Falz (Folarin Falana) stands out… He hasn’t announced a run, but he’s the most likely,” Grok stated.
The AI-generated prophecy quickly went viral, prompting Falz to repost the prediction on his timeline with a humorous Yoruba comment suggesting Grok had put him in serious “wahala.”
While Falz has made no official political declaration, fans are already buzzing at the thought of a Falz 2027 campaign.
