Musician, Damini Ogulu popularly known as Burna Boy has slammed those criticising him for challenging the organisers of the Coachella music festival in the way his name was written.
In his reaction on his Instagram page he claimed to be fighting a just cause for Africans.
“Don’t worry, I know it is a fact that my own country “Nigeria” is the 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,” he wrote.
“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,” he added.
Burna Boy and Tosin Ajibade aka Mr Eazi were announced on Thursday, January, 3, 2019 as the two Nigerian artistes that would perform at this year’s Coachella in the US.
Burna Boy shared his excitement on his Twitter page but later took to his Instagram stories to slam the organisers of the event for writing his name on the artiste line-up in small print. Insisting he was an “African Giant,” he advised them to make necessary changes.

“Cochella, I really appreciate you. But I don’t appreciate the way my name is written so small in your bill. I am an AFRICAN GIANT and will not be reduced to whatever that tiny writing means. Fix things quick please,” he wrote.
For this, however, he drew flake from a lot of Nigerians on social media who bashed him for complaining about unnecessary things.
