Nigerian music star Burna Boy recently stirred up controversy with his comments regarding fellow artist Davido’s marriage. Known for his outspoken nature, Burna Boy responded to a fan who suggested he would follow Davido’s path to marriage by commenting, “Baba made me do as I begged, can’t you see his face is wet?” (translated as “Just leave me like that, you don’t see what he’s facing”).
His comments sparked a heated debate among fans and industry insiders. Some defended Burna Boy’s right to express his views, while others criticized him for what they considered unnecessary and insensitive comments. One Twitter user, Daniel Regha, condemned Burna Boy’s comments, describing them as more of an insult than a legitimate response.
The incident also drew attention to ongoing issues in Davido’s personal life, including his custody battle with Sophia Momodu, which has been prominently reported in the media. Although Burna Boy did not directly attack or demean Davido, many interpreted his comments as lacking empathy and sensitivity.
