Few months after a picture which claimed to be the facial identity of Bisade Ologunde popularly known as Lagbaja circulated online, the man behind the mask has decided to break his silence over the said picture.
Lagbaja cleared the air, while unveiling his latest studio effort and ninth album titled ” 200 Million Mumu; The Bitter Truth”, at his event outfit, Motherland, in Opebi, Lagos, last week.
Reacting for the first time since the picture hit the internet, Lagbaja said, “people are very funny, this same picture has been put on internet before now with a similar story. They should know that Lagbaja is much older than the person there and I don’t have bald-head, may be by the time I have bald-head, he will look much like me.”
Although, the masked saxophonist did not dismiss the possibility of his facial identity being revealed someday, he however noted that it would be after he has kicked the bucket. ‘People will have the opportunity to see my face when I’m gone,” he said
Lagbaja also seized the opportunity offered by the informal gathering to address some pertinent issues bothering on his career and personality.
According to him, what he gains by not talking about his personal life on the pages of newspapers is his priceless freedom.
“Lagbaja is a very simple person, he said, adding “I don’t want to live a life of a celebrity. There are certain things I can do today, which most you cannot do. I can walk from my house in Omole Estate down to my Wonderland in Opebi, I’m talking about three kilometers here but most of you cannot do it. Not because you don’t have the energy but you simply cannot do it. What I gain by not talking about my personal life is freedom
