Nigerian comedian Freedom Okpetoritse Atsepoyi, popularly known as Mr Jollof, has shared his surprising encounter with the management of popular Nigerian singer Burna Boy.
Jollof revealed that he and some investors reached out to Burna Boy’s team to discuss the possibility of him performing at a concert in Delta state, offering $1 million as performance fees.
However, they received a rude shock when his team rejected the money because it was below the singer’s standard rate.
Following the experience, Jollof asserted that Burna Boy has reached great heights in his career and has transcended the Nigerian industry.
He also stated that Nigerians failed to recognize Burna’s potential before he became an international music star, and now he has outgrown Nigerians.
Sharing a video of himself speaking about the encounter, Mr Jollof wrote,
“Me and some investors reached out to Burnaboy team for a concert in Delta state for One Million US Dollar ( 1.3billion Naira Today’s Rate ) guess what? They said it’s too small. Burnaboy no dey Nigeria ???????? Lane again because we didn’t utilize him enough before he was EXPORTED to GLOBAL MUSIC MARKET. No jokes”
