The identity of the individual getting popular by dishing out videos on Oba of Lagos Rilwan Akiolu has been unmasked.

He is revealed as Bisoye Oshodi an indigene of Lagos State.

“But he is not a heavyweight as he is passing off” societynow.ng learned.

Insiders revealed that until recently, Bisoye was a resident of Lagos Island.

“But he is now based in London” sources disclosed.

According to an insider “He was just one of the young guys dabbling into this and that, trying to make a living when he was still in town…even when he was in Nigeria, he certainly wasn’t anywhere near where decisions are made. How he became a bead wearing prince who is versed in tradition and cultures to the point of publicly passing off as an initiate of the old religion is what we are yet to understand”

Societynow.ng gathered that the consensus among those familiar with Bisoye and his “ways” is that he is latching on the safety of distance to take on Oba of Lagos and other “things”.

“And obviously, he is getting popular by telling people what they want to hear and echoing street gist that many in Lagos Island dare not say openly” societynow.ng learned.

Regarding the authenticity of claims that Bisoye is a Lagos prince, sources asserted that “virtually everybody in that axis is a prince or princess, the question is how far or near can they trace their lineage to the throne?. But what is clear is that Bisoye’s weight in the scheme of things he has delved into is as light as the fickle of social media attention. He is just a social media sensation that is as relevant as the attention span of his audience.”
