‘No politician has ever given me anything’ – Burna Boy denies receiving land or money from Nyesom Wike

Grammy-winning singer, Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, says no politician in Nigeria has ever given him gifts or favours.

Wike had in 2021 announced he would give a plot of land and cash to Burna Boy as appreciation for winning the Grammy Award.

This came after Rivers state organized a homecoming ceremony for Burna Boy after his album ‘ Twice as Tall’ won Best Global Music Album category.

In a statement on his X handle on Thursday afternoon, Burna Boy suggested that the ex-Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State didn’t fulfill his promise of land and cash to him after he won the Grammy.
 

However, Burna Boy, in his X post, said: “No politician has ever given anything. Go ask wike where the land him give me or which money him give me. You think I’m your faves.”
