Lagos concert: Attendees lament Burna Boy’s late entry
Fans of Burna Boy took to social media to cry out and bemoaned the singer’s late arrival at his Lagos show on Sunday night.
On January 1, 2023, Burna Boy, whose real name is Damini Ogulu, headlined his concert in Lagos, and the audience do not seem to be happy with the results.
Angry guests criticised the musician on Twitter for starting his set late at the “Love Damini Concert” event.
Attendees claim that the concert began at 9 p.m., although Burna Boy did not take the stage until around 3 a.m.
According to several reports by the show attendees, no apology was issued by the singer, but he claimed that Nigerian fans dislike him because they have spread false rumours about him and that he is family in the past.
Burna Boy openly disrespecting the people that paid their hard earned money to watch him perform in Nigeria.
Disgraceful and condescending behaviour.
This man has toured the world and never for once did he insult the fans, but Nigeria is where shit happens.

After his appearance, Burna Boy lashed out at fans who attended his show in Lagos on Sunday, as he recounted how he was accused of killing someone in the club in August 2022.
The singer said he would have gone home if it hadn’t been for another artiste, Seyi Vibez.

Speaking in Pidgin English, he said, “If no be Seyi Vibes, I for just don dey go house.
