Nigerian Entertainment News: Burna Boy’s Alleged Relative Accuses Him, Reveals Singer’s Response to Request for Assistance

In the wake of Burna Boy’s N50 million donation to Bethel, reportedly the sibling of Cubana Chiefpriest, a young man claiming to be Burna Boy’s cousin has sparked conversations online

Photos and videos have surfaced, showing various Nigerians claiming family ties to either Burna Boy or Cubana Chiefpriest amid their ongoing financial drama.

In a TikTok clip, the man, believed to be Burna Boy’s relative, accused the award-winning artist of abandoning his family members in Port Harcourt.

He alleged that Burna Boy prioritized helping an outsider over his own family as a way of showcasing his superiority over Cubana Chiefpriest.

The man further disclosed that when he sought support for his business, Burna Boy advised him to work hard and hustle instead.

He claimed that Burna Boy has not extended financial assistance to his family, adding that only his mother and manager, Bose Ogulu, occasionally provide monetary help.

The alleged cousin also stated that Burna Boy could not take legal action against him since it is a family issue, and they would resolve the matter internally.

“You have never given we your family members money before, it’s only your mom that comes around and share some money for us sometimes,”

@CFC_wisrev: “Maybe because of our orientation, but family entitlement is over the roof in Nigeria. Abroad folks the making money and enjoying alone. In Nigeria, if you never press money to extended family, you are a bad person.”

@abassolamii: “Ogbeni, this tactics no go work for “money na water” o.”

@Mazimum_: “The truth is, no one is obligated to help simply because of shared bloodlines or public expectations. Burna Boy and Cubana Chief Priest, like anyone else, have the right to decide who they help—it’s their choice, not an obligation. Relationships, whether familial or otherwise.”
