Burna Boy give reasons why he won’t vote next year

Popular Nigerian musician, Damini Ogulu, better known as Burna Boy, has taken a swipe at President Muhammadu Buhari for desiring to continue in power beyond 2019.

Burns Boy disclosed that he would not be voting in the 2019 general elections.

According to him, voting next year would be tantamount to supporting the same crop of politicians to continue to remain in power at the expense of the youths.


He wrote on his Instagram page yesterday: “He (Macron) was six years old when Buhari was Nigerian Head of State in 1983. Now, Emmanuel Macron is President of France. Buhari is Nigerian President.

“If this doesn’t explain it all, I don’t know want can.

“I will not be voting (in 2019) and see no reason why me or any Nigerian youth should.


“If you think your votes mean anything or that you can implement change by voting for he same people, you are delusional and you’re part of the problem.

“We are hopeless youths who are too scared to fight for our future. Therefore, we unconsciously accept to have no future. Just recycle the past over and over while praying and talking so much.

“They (old leaders) will continue to mess with us unless we tame them.”
