Nigerian comedian and event organizer, Freedom Okpetoritse Atsepoyi, also known as Mr Jollof, has alleged that Burna Boy turned down a N1 billion offer to perform at a concert in Warri, Delta State.
Mr Jollof revealed that he and some investors contacted Burna Boy’s team with a $1 million (N1.3 billion) proposal, but it was rejected because it did not meet the singer’s usual fee.
This information was shared by the comedian in a recent Instagram post.
Mr Jollof wrote in Pidgin English, “Me and some investors reached out to Burna Boy’s team for a concert in Delta State for One Million US Dollars (1.3 billion Naira today’s rate). Guess what? They said it’s too small.
“Burna Boy no dey Nigeria lane again oo because we didn’t utilise him enough before he was exported to global music market. No jokes.”
