Burna Boy announces he is leaving Twitter after the massive backlash from Nigerians.
It isn’t an easy thing being a well known celebrity. With fame comes a lot of scrutiny into one’s life and ideas, and of course not many would like you so much even if they listened to your music.
Nigerian singer, Burna Boy is well know for always stating his opinion which has made him seem arrogant and proud. Well, a lot of Nigerians believe he is and have called him out for it.
After fellow Nigerian singer, Reekado Banks expressed interest in joining his battle of hits, the “African Giant” hit maker deemed him an unworthy opponent. This, of course, did not sit well with Nigerians and they called him out for it on Twitter.
After a long rant, he revealed that his opinions and realness aren’t valid there and so he would be quitting the app. According to him, he would be dead by now if what Nigerian said about him had any effect.
If what Nigerian twitter said about me had any effect on me then I would be Dead by now. There’s even a Yoruba saying that translates “He who says the truth won’t even find a mat to sleep on”. well Ive proved that to be WRONG. You Can’t take nothing from Me.
