Pictures and videos of the phone have been shared on Twitter by many Nigerians.
Beneath the screen of the phone is the words ‘Vote Bola Tinubu 2023’ while at the back, a colourful logo of the APC is visible.
When switched on, the phone user is first ‘greeted’ with Tinubu’s picture, followed by some words which say:
“Democracy is based upon the conviction that there are extraordinary possibilities in ordinary people.”
The phone also uses two sim cards.

Dami Elebe wrote: “Imagine if this phone doesn’t last a year after voting. Or you will have to sell it to buy food but vote Tinubu no be brand.”
Tony Bonanza wrote: “Tinubu will share phones, Atiku will share rice and beans but Peter Obi will share solutions to Nigeria’s problems.”
Emeka King wrote: “Even the phone is not even a smartphone to show you that Tinubu is not in the 21st century. Tinubu has already detached from reality.”
