Burna Boy’s Lagos concert: Angry fans throw bottles, stones on stage over singer’s late arrival

There was more than a mild drama at BurnaBoy’s Love Damini Lagos concert on Sunday as the Grammy Award-winning singer angered his fans for appearing late at his show.

After keeping fans waiting for about four hours without showing up, Burna who was expected to show up on stage on Sunday evening didn’t appear until early hours of Monday morning, keeping thousands of spectators waiting.

As fans began to express their frustration at the lateness of the singer, which according to them has become the norm for many Nigerian artistes to keep their fans waiting at shows, some who couldn’t wait any further started throwing objects on stage including bottles and stones.

Sensing that the situation may take a turn for the worst, BurnaBoy appeared suddenly in his majestic style in a see-through black shirt on black trousers at 3am as he tried to explain reasons for his late appearance on stage.

He lamented that lights were turned off for hours for no reason, urging his fans who at that time were becoming impatient to calm down and enjoy the show.

BurnaBoy also hit angrily at some of his fans who had accused him of killing someone at a popular club in Lagos last year.

Persecondnews recalls that there was an uproar early last year when news filtered out that the singer allegedly shot and killed a man in a club in Lagos after he was said to have made passes at the man’s wife.

The singer appeared on stage late and went on a tirade spree, saying many people have said a lot negative things about him but he loves his fans hence the reason he came out to entertain them.

BurnaBoy was quoted saying:” You have abused me and called me a killer, abused my mama say she danced for Fela. I love you still. But if you guys don’t love me, God will punish you.”

Some fans, however, apologised to the singer on the accusations.

Some of them said appearing late to the show to perform eventually worth the waiting as the singer gave a good account of himself by his great performance.
