“‘They Borrowed My Wristwatch!’ — Drama As Tanko Cries Out After Chaotic ADC Rally In Kano”
There was confusion, shock, and plenty of talk online after a surprising moment unfolded at a major political gathering in Kano State.
Yunusa Tanko, a key figure in the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement, has sparked massive reactions after revealing how his wristwatch disappeared during a crowded event.
The incident happened when top politicians gathered to welcome Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso into the ADC in Kano — a move that already had Nigerians talking.
But what was meant to be a political celebration quickly turned into something else.
According to a video Tanko shared on his official X (formerly Twitter) page on Tuesday, March 31, 2026, the crowd was extremely tight and difficult to control. In the clip, he could be seen struggling to move through a sea of supporters while trying to reach the stage.
Moments later, he made a shocking claim.
Tanko said some individuals in the crowd “borrowed” his wristwatch — a statement that has since gone viral and left many Nigerians both amused and concerned.
The video has now become a hot topic across social media platforms, with users sharing mixed reactions. While some people found humor in the situation, others raised serious concerns about security and crowd control at political events in Nigeria.
For those who want to watch the full moment and hear directly from Tanko, you can check the video via this YouTube interview.
This incident is happening at a time when political gatherings are becoming bigger and more energetic across the country — especially with new alliances forming ahead of future elections.
But many Nigerians are now asking important questions:
How safe are political leaders in such crowded environments?
And what does this say about event organization in major Nigerian cities?
What do you think about this?
Was it just a harmless incident or something more serious?
