Nigerian star Burna Boy under fire for chasing fans out of show, woman speaks out

Burna Boy, who has been involved in controversial interactions with his fans, hurled insults at the couple before leaving the stage, with the pair ultimately exiting the venue due to sheer humiliation.

While he and the rest of his fans continued the show after the awkward incident, people online called Burna Boy out for being insensitive and arrogant. However, according to legit.ng, the singer remains unfazed.

A recording from Burna Boy's Instagram livestream on 19 November 2025 captured him casually discussing the drama with his team and cracking jokes.

"Did I tell you to be my fans? I dey look for fans wey get money this period."

According to the online user, Burna Boy insisted that he had no regrets over his decision to kick the woman out of the venue, highlighting that his concerts are meant for fans who can actively participate in the experience.

This comes after a woman named Chaltu Jateny, who claimed to be the sleeping lady at the concert, came forward on 16 November 2025 to address the incident.

She explained that she had been mentally and physically exhausted after the recent death of her daughter’s father. However, even that was not enough to stir up an apology from the self-proclaimed African giant, who allegedly criticised the people who were offended on the woman’s behalf.
