Popular Nigerian singer Damini Ogulu aka Burna Boy is currently a trending topic of discussion on micro blogging platform, Twitter.

The singer caught the attention of internet users on the platform after he shared a post on his Snapchat page; just moments after Davido came out to describe himself and colleague Wizkid as the greatest African superstars.

Although the Ye crooner did not mention any names, music fans were quick to bring the matter to Twitter and call the singer out.


Some submitted that Burna Boy only shared the post after seeing what Davido said.


One Twitter user said: "Burna Boy needs to accept that some people are better than him. Plenty people sef. Na so life be. And no be fight. Give it 5 years, a few fresh kids might ‘dethrone’ Davido and Wizkid. Life is turn by turn."


Another enraged fan who took offence at Burna Boy’s post said: "Burna subbing Davido about his father's money is the same boy sampling Fela up & down. If he wants to test his mettle. Let him organize a free show & let Davido organize a show and charge 2000 gate fee. We all know who's gonna sell out despite the handicap. Who is Burna again?"


This will not be the first time the singer has sparked controversy in the online community. Some months ago, Legit.ng reported that Burna Boy got Nigerians feeling some type of way after saying nobody in the industry paved the way for him and that he is the best thing since Fela Kuti.

The Grammy-award nominee also said he was the one responsible for the respect Nigerians enjoy. Reacting to his boastful statements, many said they are glad he did not win his Grammy nomination.
