The winner of the BBNaija Season 5 Lockdown edition, Agbeleshebioba Olamilekan Moshood, fondly called Laycon, has shared that he participated in the reality show not for the money but for fame.
He revealed this in a recent chat with YouTuber, Korty.
‘Shall we Begin’ crooner said to a large extent he has achieved his aim of going to the show and he has never regretted his decision.
He said, “I mean people don’t know how huge this thing is. First 3 months of my ‘Who is Laycon’. EP, I had 103, 000 streams on all platforms before I went into the house. I came out of the house I had 7million streams on all platforms.
“Right now the EP has over 40million streams. Right now the album I just put out has over half of 40million streams. So tell me if what I went to do inside the house wasn’t worth it.”
When asked if he has met his goal, he responded, “No, I haven’t, my goal is a continuous process. Okay it’s like this, if there’s a goal and you meet that goal, then what?
“The more you do something you get better at it to the extent where it’s so easy and it’s fun.”
Also the brand influencer and singer was asked if he regrets going to the BBNaija show, he replied: “No no! I mean, when you look at the positives that come out of it, they overshadow the negatives.
“The negatives are… I mean, there’s a whole lot of personal things I can’t even do anymore.
“There’s the mental effect that being in a space (like that) has on you.
“The negatives are when you come outside and see perceptions that people have of you.
“When we were in that house, a whole lot of things happened that didn’t make the cut.”
