Someone like Neo Akpofure had this to say about Saga;
“With what I have seen here, all I can feel is that Saga is very talented. It is always nice when you see originality in the arts. When you look at every work on display, you tell they’re personal to him and share a similar trait. I love his work, and I love the energy he puts into making every piece”
Ebuka had this to say about Saga’s works:
“I’m very, very proud of Saga and what he is doing. I knew about his art even before he went on Big Brother; I had regularly seen some of his works online and stumbled upon his page. I know it took quite a while for him to go public with his work. But after seeing how well his done with the pieces on display now, I understand why It took a while.”
Saga, during the opening, revealed he had been drawing since as far back as he could remember. But went professional about it in 2015.
The 30-year-old also noted that at first, his father didn’t support him, but now he is entirely in support of his pursuit of arts.
