Fame doesn’t afford me my old lifestyle anymore — Adekunle Olopade

BBNaija reality star, Adekunle Olopade has opened up on how difficult it is for him trying to adjust to fame since leaving the Big Brother house.

In an interview, Adekunle listed some of the challenges that come with being famous and a public figure.

He said things he used to do freely before, like going to the market and boarding public transit, he can no longer do them anymore.

When asked how he handles his fame, Adekunle replied: “I will be very honest with you. I find it very difficult to adjust because one of the things that comes with being a media personality is you have to understand the way to live.

Unfortunately, I am a very different person, I like to do things differently, by saying this now means I might not be able to do this again. I always go to Balogun and Tinubu market and I put on a face mask. I quickly walk into the market and come back.

“When I used to run my business I go to the market by myself. So, going into the house for a few months and coming back I realized that a lot has changed. I found it difficult to adjust to it. When I wanted to connect I was at my call. All those things I used to do, take public transportation, go to the market, or maybe stand at the bus stop because I still want to feel like a regular person. I realized that I will have to do away with some things for security reasons. It’s slower at the pace, but I have to adjust to it.”
