Fans of the top four Nigerian artists doing well in the game—Burna Boy, Wizkid, Davido, and Olumide have called them out for their silence during the election period.
A Twitter influencer identified as Duke Darls sparked the conversation about these artists not getting involved in the election buzz.
The tweep, however, criticised Burna Boy the most for not practising what he preaches in songs.
“Most especially you, Burna, you’ve built a house on the hill of freedom-fighting music; y’all should forever shut up and sing the normal Nyansh and women’s song,” he said.
