Charly boy's quirky photos are for a magazine.



Controversial Nigerian entertainer Charly boy made the news recently about pictures of him in tribal outfits with tons of make up too Read here. The pictures were taken to feature in a magazine 'illusion'.


He is featured on the cover of Illusion magazine - November issue. wearing a tribal Ade Bakare Couture inspired see through organza sweep coat with only a thong to cover his body.

He had some of the following issues to clear in the interview conducted.

On Nigerian anti-gay law: You know our people have a problem with prioritizing. My sexuality as long as long as it is not harassing anybody what has that got to do with the obnoxious corruption that is going on with impunity? People’s sexual preference does not come into priority, what is going on with all our money? I blame our people because it’s not just about the leaders but followers. I’m not happy with the Nigerian youths, they don’t speak about the leadership, threats and pains they experience daily, and they have compromised to such and mortgaged their futures. Out of fear and weakness they left the rot persist which is unfortunate, the future they all talk about, what do they see? Because tomorrow belongs to the youths and if they don’t take it back by any means, these riff-rafts will continue to spoil things




On losing his dad: We made peace some twenty years ago, he was the one who initially told me that this lifestyle won’t work here, that it will bring disrespect and no one will ever want to work for or with me. That however, gave me more impetus to forge ahead, advanced my stubbornness, consistency and the ability to focus in the face of so many oppositions. So he called me some years ago and told me he was so proud of me and it melted my heart. For the past fifteen years he lived with me, we bonded, we literally became best friends. So when he had a stroke, it gave me time to prepare physically, spiritually and otherwise and the fact that i made him a fulfilled man, I didn’t cry, I don’t know why but I took it well.
