As a result, Burna Boy was assailed by internet users for speaking up too late as they expressed their utter dissatisfaction in him. Burna Boy’s recent contribution to the presidential election, which began on Saturday, February 25th, didn’t sit well with Nigerians.

One Vogue boy wrote: “He no want make dem give Falz African giant title.”

Cjay Derek wrote: “He should hold his voice. Nigeria doesn’t need his voice anymore. If it’s to make music about Nigeria and make money, he would do that within 12 hours.” 

One Presh called out other Nigerian artistes: “Make him rest abeg….it’s too late….selfish egocentric individual… Na people way dey buy their expensive show tickets come still wait for hours untop the crowd choking I dey blame…… Look at your mate like Falz…… Even wizzy self forget say na Nigerians help am climb, as for Davido I have no words I’m disappointed…..we’re all going through a lot, he came out to support his uncle, made other few appearances and also performed in the world cup so he’s not excluded…. All of us dey kuku go through a lot abeg……a woman was stabbed multiple times but still came back to vote and support……. No excuse for these three big Artistes and their colleagues… We no really get sense for this country…..celebrating rubbish……selfish people “
