I was a very regular customer at the place restaurant surulere, last year. I had visited the place countless times to get food and seen gbolahan quite often as he has attended to me number of times, Untill the day it clicked! I looked at him as he printed my bill over the desk, and I said to myself, how come I haven’t seen this? How did it take me so long to realize??? Well without hesitating I took out my phone, and made the first video in the slide. Sent it straight to my boss @Cias Models He said interesting can we see more without his cap, and that was how we started…. Today, gbolahan from behind the desk as a restaurant server boy in Lagos Nigeria, made his first debut in Milan, for Fendi !!!! #tiktokviral #fyp #models #fyppppppppppppppppppppppp
