Popular musician Burnaboy lost his chill after Omoyele Sowore called him to join the October 1st protest.

Sowore via his Twitter handle tweeted this:

Hello @burnaboy, everywhere I turn people describe you as a revolutionary musician, the foreign media even celebrate you compare you to Fela Kuti, but I am yet to see you lead anyone to a police station carrying a coffin for head of state! Join #Oct1stProtest #RevolutionNow

Burna boy quickly responded with this:

Everybody is a Fela fan and supporter now that he is dead. Humans are so Funny, You politicians are ALL the same (especially in Nigeria) and Frankly I don’t trust none of you.@YeleSowore.

Epic reply

Anyone shouting revolution is a liar with only personal interest at heart. The structure of this country makes it impossible to salvage, the diversity is not educated enough to coexist nor many ethnic groups ready to coexist. The high impunity and nepotism on the Northern Fulani isn't not what anyone can fix either. The only solution is disintegration. They started with not too young to rule now look at Senator Abbo and Gov Yahya Bello. Embarrassing our youths on a multiple streak. No politician in the Nigerian false contraption is to be trusted

The real cowards are the anti Biafrans. Nigeria will never be good. The system needs an entire dismantling which translates to disintegration then the real revolution would begin when the divided units competes for greatness in the global scene

I'm not Igbo but they seems to be the only people bold enough in this zoo of a country that wants to take control of their future unlike my Yorubas and other coward who prefer suffering and smiling. We must all take our destiny and future in our hands and dissolve this forced contraption. I no trust Sowore either he campaigned vigorously for Buhari in 2015 election now look at him.

Besk:


Idiot, you’re as Igbo as they come and you’re an incurable tribalist. Can you not make your narrow-minded tribalistic point without insulting other tribes? Maybe not.

Home training is a very scarce value nowadays.

Shame on you! The previous and recent DSS recruitment is tribalistic not me .. Buharis appointment is tribalistic not me ...the service chiefs and DG of high majority of the MDAs and other federal parastatals are tribalistic not me ... all the high ranking police and para military and military focusing on the Northern Fulani are tribalistic not me... The RUGA and the Water Resource Bill is tribalistic not me... If you're not benefactor of all these then you're the most stewpid coward. If you're a beneficiary, then know the days of your empire is numbered as it will end in premium tears for all you

Burna dey fear.

Buna don run� oo what I know is Nigeria will break soon

Odogwu aburo guy name.
I stand with Burna

Burna is more concern on his music life...

He doesn't want to die young so he can't trust a politician...

For now let him use his voice to revolt

Apt reply, Burna! Sowore should seek support from his fellow jobless politicians; Sheu Sani, Dino Melaye, Reno Omokri and other failed ones.

GBAM!!!

Rrotests will never ever work in this country and our leaders know that, hence their continued disrespect for us. If a Yoruba man leads a protest in Nigeria, Igbos will slander him, those who don't share his religious sentiment will slander him. If an Igbo man leads a protest, Yorubas and Ijaws will slander him... until we realise we are fighting a common enemy and fight in agreement, we can't achieve much in terms of protests

Yele is not the same. He has shown that.

I could say the say about about burna boy that musicians are all crackheads who lead a dysfunctional lifestyle chasing women, drugs and alcohol

Since 1993, Yele has been and still faces persecution from the government.

Burns just used this rubbish reply as an excuse.

Perfect response.

Nobody is fooled by Sowore.

Burna boy just showed how daft and brainless he and his crew are... with all the songs and lyrics of chain, politicians, killings, bondage, Government blah blah blah etc, and then you tweet this as response..

A better response could have been "Thank you for the recognition, but the struggles of Africans needs much more than just me"..

As far as am concern Burna boy can choose to join the protest at his own risk, one thing we ll understand in Nigeria for now be say we dont know who is who and we cant compare the era of Fela to this current dispensation, back then theres loyalty and you can depend on people support to protest against govt without expecting to be bank roll, Now all around the world almost all protester are paid for it, The blame i have for our musicians is just they are nomore representing the real cultural part of music, not any nigeria artist is currently using his or her musical power to speak against any bad govt policy and thats too bad!

I love the response of Burna Boy.

omoyele sowore was the main media propagandist for APC when they were fighting to him power in 2015.

Sowore knew the type of man Buhari is but he did the fighting for his own selfish and tribalism interest.

EastGold:
Burna Boy is a coward abeg

If your dad had protested a long time ago while he was a young man, maybe Nigeria would have been a better place. Reason am

Burna should really tone down on all the lines. With his tweet, even if the revolution was handed over to him on a platter, I doubt if he will grab the opportunity.

Just want to milk the fame off a legend without doing so much as giving an apt comment as regards his reasons not to join the movement he so cowardly sings about.

Anyone that comes here to pull the "what did you father do line" really needs some schooling.
He is a musician who profits from the abundance of his words and action.

He should really tone down on his lyrics if he can't portray what he sings.

C'est fini

Burner boi than ran for the police during the Mr 2kay issue. is that who you want to protest? moreover I would do anything for a person like Sowore. the guy is a manipulative selfish clown. I pity those he will convince to protest for him.
Trust no Politician

Lol

dont trust anybody even if is your father.

He is claiming to be Fela incarnate
claiming to be the only music revolutionist after Fela but he doesn't want to take the risk Fela took.

Cowardice low budget Fela

It isn’t hard to know people that have nothing? Keep waiting from 2020 till infinity for Nigeria to divide.
