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.
NigerianEye 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.
