However, this is not the first time Ezra’s dressing and looks have sparked a reaction.
For most of his photos, Ezra always uses lipstick, rocking long dreads and painting his nails black.
In an exclusive interview, Ezra, who came out with make-up for the first in December 2013, told the New York Times that he attends most of his meetings with investors in San Francisco and Lagos with tousled dreads, long nails with bright colours and lipstick.
Ezra, also noted that the now disbanded Special Anti Robbery Squad, SARS, has countlessly harassed him due to his painted nails and makeup on the streets of Lagos.
