YBNL Queen Bee defends Fireboy as fans accuse him of singing at Tinubu’s pre-inauguration concert.
Queen Bee, a member of the YBNL Nation, has defended Afrobeats sensation Fireboy DML after he faced criticism for his performance at president-elect Bola Tinubu’s pre-inauguration celebration.
The event took place on Thursday, May 25, 2023, and no fewer than 46 performers were contracted for it. The “Peru” crooner was one of those who accepted the offer.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) youth organized the ‘RenewedHopeConcert‘ event to honour the role that young people performed in the general elections.
Naira Marley, Waje, Brymo, Asake, Fireboy, Kcee, Asake, Timaya, BNXN, Pasuma, Tony Tetuila, and Seyi Vibes are a few more artists that also performed.
However, his supporters were incensed by his behaviour and lambasted him on Twitter for disregarding their sentiments.
Reacting to the backlash, Queen Bee disclosed that Seyi Tinubu was the person who took Fireboy to meet his boss, Olamide.
She tweeted;“Lol most of them don’t know Seyi Tinubu introduced Fireboy DML to Olamide.”
Lol most of them don't know Seyi Tinubu introduced Fireboy DML to Olamide.

Other social media users also provided justifications for why they thought Fireboy did nothing wrong.
@Officially_Kriz; Seyi Tinubu was the one that introduced Fireboy DML to Olamide & gave him a life changing opportunity in YBNL. Y’all want Damola to hang his friend dry because of twitter for red pen .
@TheSilvapr; Seyi Tinubu was part of the reason Olamide signed Fireboy and you expect Fireboy not to perform for Tinubu?? if na you, you no go perform? cancel una.
