‘I’m now richer than politicians, oil moguls I looked up to’ – Burna Boy

Famous Afrobeat musician, Burna Boy has disclosed that he is now richer than most of the Nigerian politicians and oil tycoons he once looked up to.


He made this known in a post on his Instagram story on Saturday, while advising his followers not to underestimate those who are younger than them.

Revealing his financial status, the singer explained “Imagine growing up and only oil men and politicians were the ones really getting the real money followed by the G boys. Music wasn’t even in the conversation when money was the topic.

“Now an ugly black musician from Port Harcourt got more money than 90% of the people he looked up to as money makers.”

Burna Boy advised his followers not to look down on anyone because they could become tomorrow’s ELon Musk.

I couldn’t sleep for one week – Seun Kuti on being snubbed by Davido

Maverick singer Seun Kuti has recalled his frustration about not being invited to Afrobeats megastar Davido’s wedding.

DAILY POST recalls that dignitaries from all walks of life attended Davido’s lavish wedding to his wife, Chioma, on June 25, 2024.

Featuring in a recent episode of ‘Curiosity Made Me Ask’ hosted by content creator Bae U Barbie, Kuti disclosed that he couldn’t sleep for a week after Davido snubbed him for his wedding invitees.

He explained that it was painful because Davido and his team used to drink free beer at his family’s bar.

“Davido would come to the African Shrine with 100 guys, and he would drink without paying, but when it was time for his wedding, I didn’t get IV. I was pained, I didn’t sleep for one week,” he said.

Diddy placed on suicide watch in prison

Embattled American rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been placed on suicide watch at the Metropolitan Detention Centre in New York.

Diddy was reportedly placed on suicide watch for preventative measures.

DAILY POST reports that the 54-year-old who was arrested on Monday is currently facing federal sex trafficking and racketeering charges.

On Tuesday, Robyn Tarnofsky, the US magistrate judge, ordered that Diddy be sent to jail to await trial.

However, on Friday, Diddy’s attorney, Marc Agnifilo, told TMZ that the suicide watch directive by MDC officials was merely a routine measure for “new, high-profile inmates.”

Agnifilo, who noted that he spent six hours with Diddy at the federal lockup on Thursday, said of the rapper: “[He’s] not at all suicidal. He was healthy, strong, confident and focused on his defense.”

The report did not reveal how long Diddy will remain under suicide watch.
