‘Fela Status Is Not By Mouth’ – Nigerians Attack Burna Boy

Burna Boy has been heavily criticized by Nigerians on social media for rejecting a request to join the RevolutionNow protest.

Former presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore had invited Burna to join the protest owing to his comparison with Fela Anikulapo Kuti..

However, Burna Boy turned down the offer, stating that Nigerian politicians cannot be trusted.

His comments stirred reactions and backlash from Nigerians on Twitter.

Some Nigerians called out the ‘African giant’ for making songs about bad governance but refused to join the protest.
