Nigerian Grammy Award-winning singer, Damini Ogulu, better known as Burna Boy, has sparked concerns among many fans and supporters about his health.
Naijaonpoint reports that this comes after media personality, Adesope Shopsydoo, shared on his Instagram page a snippet of Burna Boy receiving medical treatment.
In the short clip, Burna Boy was captured lying down on the bed.
Shopsydoo wrote, “Burna Boy down with illness behind the scene, it is not easy at all, touring is hard speedy recovery to Burna.”
In other news, Nigerian comedian, I Go Save, has berated Nigerians for mocking Burna Boy over the cancellation of some of his shows.
Recall that a few weeks ago, Burna Boy interrupted his performance and asked a female fan to leave his show after he spotted her sleeping during his performance.
Following the incident, some Nigerians in America called for his show to be boycotted.
Two days ago, his shows in Chicago and Minneapolis were cancelled due to poor ticket sales.
The Grammy-winning artist addressed the incident during a recent show in Dallas, offering an apology to his fans and asking for understanding over the situation.
He said: “I know my ticket sales are suffering since that incident. Even the coffee I introduced no one is buying. So please, I am sorry to everyone and everything I said. It was a slip of tongue.”
Netizens who were pleased with the development have taken to the internet to share their joy.
Reacting in a post shared on Instagram Stories, I Go Save berated those who were celebrating the cancellation and equated their actions to ‘witchcraft.”
He argued that God would continue to bless people he wants, regardless of human hatred.
