By next year, if you don't have the Emilokan cap on your head, you will be stopped. You're lucky it's just Dreadlocks and Tattoo they're stopping now. 55 Likes 2 Shares |

He's actually a Hausa guy from Kano named Isa Bako. I follow him on Ticktok. According to him, his father is a very rich man from Kano who sent him to the US to school but then shut him off when he adopted an 'American' way of life. Very intelligent guy

The fact that you use the word responsible simply means you don’t comprehend the concept. Being responsible doesn’t mean appearance. Anyone who thinks appearance is irresponsibility. You need to first ask if he is able to take care of his family, pay his rent, and afford the good things. Now that’s the meaning of responsibility LordBiden: 12 Likes 1 Share |

Welcome to Nigeria a backward country where people determine your behaviour from your physical features, tattoo means you're bad, dreads means you're a criminal, bald head means you're a Reverend father, meanwhile those doing all manner of evil like kidnapping, murdering, looting etc non of them have dreads, they're worried about dreads when the country is literally on fire, shey people with dreads no full usa, why are they not being harassed over there Abi it's only in this part of the world that a hairstyle is a national threat.

LordBiden: So because he's on dreadlocks now, he's irresponsible. Some comments here are just preposterous to say the least. There are so many irresponsible people out there who dress up with good looking hair cut to deceive unsuspecting citizens. some of our so call police in this country have shown the highest regard and acceptability to corruption among other vices, so abeg let call them out when they mess up. 6 Likes 1 Share |

nairavision: Having a dreadlock and beards is a rough look? Then the next thing is for the police to stop him and start stylishly asking for bribes right? We have obviously normalized a lot of abnormal things in Nigeria. 5 Likes 1 Share |
