VAWULENCE!!! “You’re A Clown And An Opportunist Who Only Uses Nigerian Issues To Promote His Music” – Shade Ladipo Drags Burna Boy

Published

Burna Boy, the self-described “African giant,” has come under fire from Nigerian media personality Shade Ladipo after disclosing the causes of his silence during the 2023 election.

You may recall that the Nigerian musician, known for writing songs about activism, corruption, and the misery of the common Nigerian, took to Instagram on Monday to explain why he hadn’t spoken out about the election after being criticized for it.

He claimed that he declined to back any candidate because he did not believe in any of the people running for political office and did not want to be held responsible if the candidate was unsuccessful in winning the election.

His words,

“I don’t know why it’s such a big deal to some Nigerians that I’ve not been vocal about the elections,” he wrote on his Instagram stories. Personally I don’t have a candidate that I believe in. I’ve never supported any political party or candidate in my life because I don’t want to make you vote and then blame me when the person f**ks up as usual. That being said, I hope all votes count and the best man wins.”

His reasons, however, did not sit well with a number of Nigerians, including media personality Shade Ladipo, and they did not hesitate to express their displeasure.

Ladipo tagged Burna Boy as a clown and an opportunist who only uses Nigerian and African issues to promote his music.

“Your African ant is a clown. If you are a true pan-Africanist as you claim with your music then you must understand the importance of these elections. Promoting voter participation doesn’t involve supporting any candidate. You are a clown and an opportunist who only uses Nigeria/African issues to promote your music. F*cking fraud with fake dreads”. She wrote.
