It all started after a Davido fan account with the username,@ABetterTime, said in a Twitter discussion that Burna owe it to other artists for all his achievements.
“He was *just an average star back in Nigeria and Africa at large, more like an artist with prospects, unlike his peers who had to do it on their own from day one.” Davido’s fan said.
Burna then tweeted, telling his fan to ignore the “delusional fanbases” after they tried to defend him.
“Bro. Don’t get worked up. It’s Nigerian Twitter with 2 delusional fanbases, trust me You are not talking to actual people if their handles look like that.” Burna Boy tweeted.

This led to Twitter outrage, as Nigerians accuse Burna of using Nigeria for clouts. They also reminded the singer that received money from Rivers State governor Wike during the homecoming concert.
