Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu better known as Burna Boy has refused to let Nigerians drag him over his stand on the presidential election that took place on February 25.
Amidst the backlash which has persisted, the singer finally bowed to pressure and has felt the need to address the matter at once.
In a post on his Instagram story, Burna Boy said that he has never received money or other tangible gifts from any government.
He said that all the good he has ever done for the country has always been from a place of love, not for validation.
According to him, he owes nobody anything, adding that he didn’t vote in the election and people should leave him alone.
He wrote:
“I’ve never made money from any Nigerian government and I never took any house, land or money from any governor. I’ve never been appointed to any public office and I never intended to be. All the good I do for my country comes from my heart, pockets, Time and emotions. it’s not for social media validation and it’s definitely not because I owe anybody. I say I nor Vote. Make everybody getat.”
In another post, Burna boy shared an exchange with a fan who told him not to try to justify his reason for not being vocal during the election.
In response to the fan, the music star noted that they only sought who would endorse a candidate to vote for. He added that they should look up to someone else.
Burna added that he has never supported a political party or candidate, so people would not blame him for endorsing a particular candidate when they fail to perform.
