A Burkina Faso blog page, @trulilgram, recently shared on Instagram that President Ibrahim Traoré has reportedly turned down Nigerian singer Burna Boy’s offer to hold a free concert in the country.
Earlier, Burna Boy posted on his second Instagram account, expressing his willingness to perform at no cost for the people of Burkina Faso this year.
He wrote, “If possible it would be an honor for me to give the people of Burkina Faso a Free BURNA BOY Concert sometime this year Insha Allah.”
However, Ibrahim Traoré reportedly declined the offer, explaining that the country currently “needs no distraction.” The @trulilgram post further stated,
“President Ibrahim Traoré said he appreciate the love but he doesn’t need distraction in Burkina Faso Ei, and the people of Burkina Faso BH said BurnaBoy should take the concert somewhere else, that they need to focus on their goal to protect their president.”
