Following his outburst over the way his name was written on the Coachella poster, Burna Boy has called Nigeria home to the largest number of backward unprogressive fools.
Perhaps his rant was triggered by the way Nigerians tackled him over his complaint on how hi s name was written on the Coachella poster.
In a now deleted post shared on Friday, January 4, 2018, Burna Boy wrote, ”Don’t worry, I know for a fact that my own country, NIGERIA is home to the largest number of backward Unprogressive FOOLS.
I will still fight for them because they are not mentally advanced enough to fight for themselves. They will Forever have my Genuine undying LOVE.
To the few proud Young AFRICAN Intellectuals who will not conform to whatever bullshit they are given. you are the Only Hope of AFRICA. God bless you all.”
