Nigerian artist Burna Boy has slammed his colleague, Eedris Abdulkareem, over yet-to-be-released podcast comments against him.
On Saturday, a clip from The Honest Bunch Podcast’s forthcoming episode teaser, in which Abdulkareem slammed Burna Boy for claiming no Nigerian artist assisted him, went popular on X.
“You hear someone like Burna Boy say no one helped him in Nigeria. That’s stupid talk,” Abdulkareem said.
Burna Boy responded in a now-deleted tweet made under his verified X profile, saying he didn’t blame Abdulkareem for his statement, but rather the fans who donated money to cover his medical fees after a kidney transplant in 2022.
The ‘African Giant’ crooner, who is currently in the Bahamas for a show, said: “Abdul Kareem abi wettin dem dey call your papa, I no blame you. I blame people wey donate money for your hospital bills. And I wish say you be person wey fit dey enter the kind places wey I dey dey, make we use mistake jam.”
