London Mayor Sadiq Khan has praised Nigerian content creator Bemi Orojogun, known online as London Bus Aunty, after she secured the Video of the Year honor at the TikTok UK Awards. Khan highlighted how her enthusiasm for the city's red buses has resonated with audiences across Britain while noting her support for the Bakerloop express bus route.
Orojogun competed against Friends of Elmtree, Sam Morris, Gardiner Brothers, Joseph Machines and Brad Ben for the recognition celebrating exceptional platform creators. The influencer gained widespread attention through a forced-perspective clip that accumulated nearly 50 million views and has partnered with Burberry, H&M and MAC Cosmetics. She previously collaborated with Khan to promote zero-emission transit options.
During her acceptance remarks, Orojogun urged others not to let age or family concerns prevent them from following their interests. Nigerian supporters have humorously suggested she attempt similar creative projects in congested locations like Oshodi or CMS.
