However, even after the fan was booted off, the singer signalled his disinterest in carrying on with the performance and headed toward the exit.
Burna Boy’s action sparked various reactions across social media, with many calling him out for assaulting the fan and others defending him.
A fan said, “He was obviously scared, do you all know how this can make your blood go cold especially when you know some people have probably been threatening you and some persons don’t like you? Y’all please stop that.”
“These people complaining about him leaving the show. Do you see that he had to pause for some minutes after the incident? It was like a flash and he was trying to understand what just happened!!! These people are humans too,” said another.
Another fan defended him, saying, “Someone was performing and a guy from nowhere jumped on him like that and y’all think it’s okay???? Any small thing if na abroad , why you no from the abroad?? Yall watch a little clip and boom you are dragging him!!! This gullibility should stop this year”
