Burna Boy apologizes to Nigerian fans over performance delay

Burna Boy, a Grammy Award winner who is also known as Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, has apologized to his fans for being late for his show in Lagos.

Remember how, after arriving late to his concert with the subject “Love Damini Concert,” the singer cursed his detractors and noted that, despite several rumors against him, he continued to perform throughout the nation.

Fans, however, have used social media to express their ire about his tardiness to the event.

In response to the outburst, Burna Boy apologized to his followers on his Instagram account on Monday and cited the event’s organizers as the cause of his tardy performance.

He said, “Lagos, I love you but I can’t do this again. The organisational structure and infrastructure are not there for the complexities of my audio and production needs.

“Let’s be clear. I wasn’t late, my band wasn’t late. We pride ourselves on being highly professional, especially with our stagecraft. There were three options available to me; wait for the audio to be fixed and delay the show, come out at 11 pm as planned with no sound or call a breach of contract and pull the plug.

Going forward, Burna Boy said he is working with some investors and stakeholders who are forestalling future occurrences because he wants to continue to give his fans top-notch performances.

“I know I can’t go all over the world and neglect my own people so I’m taking matters into my own hands! I’m gathering the troops to work on building world-class infrastructure in the Nigerian entertainment business.”
