Singer, Burna Boy has classified Nigeria as ‘collateral damage’ due to the country’s current status.
During a recent interview with Tidal, the artist described Nigeria as a Royal Niger corporation for the British.
In a now-trending social media video, Burna Boy underlined that Nigerians are suffering as a result of poor government and other influences.
Sharing his thoughts about how Nigeria came to be, he noted that the country was never meant to exist.
“We were not even supposed to be Nigerians in the first place. We are the Royal Niger company. So, we are basically a company for the British to take resources and go for Britain.
“Then somewhere along the line, the company decided to buy the whole place and amalgamate it.
“So at the end of the day, the people that sell the place and the people that buy the place to them are the winners. While the rest of the people are collateral damage,” he stated.
