Pulse List: Meet some of the most popular Nigerian celebrities on TikTok

If you are planning on having a good laugh on Tik Tok, then here are some of the Nigerian celebs you definitely should be pitching your tents with.

Globally, social media apps have become a part of the daily lives of people, however, in the last few months, one app that has stood out is Tik Tok.

The coronavirus pandemic around the world can be said to be a blessing in disguise for Tik Tok as its ratings have surged over the last couple of months with a lot of people utilising the very interactive video app to while away time during the lockdown.

For a number of your favourite celebrities whose creative prowess has been underutilised because of the lockdown, Tik Tok has become their best bet at showing off not just their talents (boredom included) but the hilarious sides we had no prior knowledge of.

In no particular order, if you are planning on having a good laugh on Tik Tok, then here are some of the Nigerian celebs you definitely should be pitching your tents with.

1. Kunle Remi
