Burna Boy dragged for calling Nigerians ‘backward unprogressive fools’

Share

Burna Boy has been dragged by Nigerians on Twitter, following his Instagram post in which he called Nigerians ‘backward unprogressive fools’.

We reported that the singer in his post said that Nigeria is home to the largest number of backward unprogressive fools, because most Nigerians are not mentally advanced to fight for themselves. Though he promised to fight for such people, he went on to thank some African intellectuals who according to him, never conform to any bullshit they are given.

However Nigerians who reacted to this, dragged the singer who according to them is allowing his ‘hype last year get into his head’. Here are some tweets below;

“Backward unprogressive fools” because you were corrected to embrace the pyramid pattern of how things works First feature and you want to be the headline artist. One can overreact but failing to admit one’s mistakes is where the problem lies He thinks he’s Mandela too.

Burna Boy just called some Nigerians backward unprogressive fools & some people are angry, in a country where many people are doing everything for Buhari to be president for another 4 yrs, if that’s not a country with many backward unprogressive fools, I don’t know what it is.

Okay, Now it’s beginning to seem like Burna boy just wants to trend. Because saying “Nigeria is the home to the largest number of backward unprogressive fools” was a really unnecessary thing for him to have said.
