Adekunle, a former participant on All Stars, discussed various challenges he has encountered since departing from the Big Brother house in a recent interview. The reality TV personality revealed a set of difficulties he has faced since gaining recognition. While it’s widely known that fame comes with its own set of challenges, Adekunle is navigating this newfound reality for the first time and has mentioned specific issues like being unable to use public transportation or go to the market. When questioned about how he copes with his newfound fame, Adekunle responded:
“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.”
