“Don’t Jump on My Stage Like That” – Burna Boy Explains Fan Kicking Incident
Nigerian music Giant Burna Boy has explained why he kicked a fan during his performance at the 2025 Lagos Countdown concert.
A video of the incident, which went viral on social media, shows Burna boy kicking a fan who climbed up the stage abruptly during his performance.
Responding to the backlash, Burna Boy addressed the situation through an Instagram story, revealing that he has PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) and reiterating his long-standing rule about personal space during performances.
He emphasized that startling him while on stage triggers his PTSD, which stems from past experiences.
“It was a free show. I was supposed to perform for 10 minutes but gave almost an hour,” he shared.
“I’ve always made it clear, don’t get on my stage unexpectedly when I’m performing.
I had an amazing time with Lagos State last night, but don’t jump on my stage like that! I love you all. Happy New Year.”
VeryDarkMan shares that he was warned by Burna Boy once that the Nigerians he fights for will one day turn on him.
He shared “Burna Boy warned me, he said the Nigerians I’m fighting for will backstab me. They’ll put knife in your neck if they have the opportunity.”
“Fighting for Nigerians is tiring. Same Nigerians that tried to cancel Burna of their own because of what happened in his UK show. Una international star. Just because him tell one person make him Comot from him show, Una join them everybody wan cancel am.”
