Grammy Award winner, Burna Boy’s mother, Bose Ogulu has cried out to Nigerians that Governor Nyesome Wike of Rivers State has not fulfilled the promise he made to her son to pay him N10 million for winning the Grammy Awards.
She made the revelation recently while speaking with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu on Rubbing Minds.
She said; “My son did not receive N10 million from Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State. It would have been a travesty if any other state had hosted the singer before Rivers.”
“The first thing about that event was that money was not paid. It was paid to everyone else but Burna.”
“Everyone else who came to perform was paid, but him, because they were honouring him. He was not being paid to be there.”
“It is only a bastard, my people say, that refuses honour in his father’s house.”
Governor Nyesom Wike had at the homecoming ceremony for Burna Boy, promised to give him the N10 million and a land in Rivers State as an appreciation for winning the Grammy Award being a son of the soil.
Governor Wike also promised to gift other singers that performed at the ceremony N10 million each.
