Burna Boy's outing seemingly irked Nigerians due to Seyi Tinubu's recent feud with Eedris Abdulkareem, the ace Nigerian singer.

Legit.ng earlier reported that Abdulkareem criticised President Bola Tinubu and his son, Seyi, over the country’s economic hardship and policies.

The rapper also released a protest track, “Tell Your Papa,” which was subsequently banned by the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC).
