How Burna Boy rejected N1bn performance fee – Mr Jollof

According to claims made by Nigerian comedian and show producer Mr. Jollof, also known as Freedom Okpetoritse Atsepoyi, musician Burna Boy turned down a N1 billion offer to play at a concert in Warri, Delta State, that he and a few investors arranged.

He claimed that they offered $1 million (N1.3 billion) to the artist’s team, but they were turned down because the amount was less than what the singer charged.

The comedian revealed this in a recent Instagram post.

Mr. Jollof wrote in Pidgin English, “Me and some investors reached out to Burna Boy’s team for a concert in Delta State for One Million US Dollars (1.3 billion Naira today’s rate). Guess what? They said it’s too small.

“Burna Boy no dey Nigeria lane again oo because we didn’t utilise him enough before he was exported to global music market. No jokes.”
