Bisade Lagbaja Ologunde has been hiding his face behind a mask since the early 90′s.
Lagbaja is a Yoruba word that means ‘Nobody In Particular’.
Lagbaja has said that his mask is an icon of man’s facelessness. The mask and the name symbolize the faceless, the voiceless in the society, particularly in Africa. Finally, our curiosity to know who Lagbaja is ended yesterday as a pictured alleged to be the man behind the mask surfaced on the internet.
Nigerian Eye gathered that On Saturday, September 29 Lagbaja’s Omole Estate, Lagos
home was visited by men of the underworld and valuables worth millions of naira was
carted away in the process, perhaps, pictures showing his face too? So far, the afrobeat
singer who is in far away United States has not confirmed if the face is actually his or if he is
the one that made the picture public or mandated someone to do so on his behalf. It is
however hard to ignore the striking similarities between this face and the masked one especially the lips, eyes and shape of chin.
