Days after emerging as a Grammy-winning artiste, Nigerian singer, Burna Boy, has returned to pay homage to a place where it all started for him.
The singer recently arrived in Port-Harcourt for a homecoming event to celebrate his milestone and he was given nothing short of a royal welcome.
A video spotted on social media captured the moment Burna Boy and his mother, Bose Ogulu, posed with Rivers governor, Nyesom Wike, for a group photograph.
Check out the video below:
Fans in the state also trooped out in their numbers to show support for the self-styled African Giant. He was spotted in his motorcade waving to supporters who wouldn’t stop singing his praises.
