Bassey’s story came to the limelight after music maker Alexander Onyekachi with IG handle @oc_cares1, and disc jockey Bright Bassey of IG handle @only1brytos said they had been observing his efforts since moving into the area in December 2021.

Bright said:

“A lot of people have been seeing this man for years, we just moved into Ajah (Lagos) last December. Since then, I and my partner have been seeing him. We didn’t even know he was this big (an Olympian).

"We thought he was just a random person until we summoned the courage to speak with him. We even saw some comments as some people said they never knew he could speak (English)."
