In another news, Burna Boy is in the news for the wrong reasons again after he reportedly rained abuses on some fans at a Lagos concert.
In video footage from the concert shared on Twitter, the singer was booed by fans after he arrived late.
However, instead of apologising, Burna Boy went on a rant accusing the concertgoers of labelling him a murderer after a shooting incident between the singer and a newly-wedded couple at Obi Cubana’s club in Lagos.
