Africa’s richest man Aliko Dangote in a report making the rounds online reportedly disclosed why he invited Grammy Award winner Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu professionally known as Burna Boy to his mansion.
Recall that Aliko Dangote invited singer Burna Boy to his house for dinner during the ongoing Ramadan where they both whine and dine together.
This comes after the singer Burna Boy alongside his colleague Wizkid had earlier visited celebrity billionaire Femi Otedola at his house alongside Cecil Hammond (Flytime CEO).
In a viral post reported by Music Base Africa on Facebook, Dangote disclosed that he invited Burna Boy to his mansion after just finding out last week that Burna Boy released a song known as “Dangote”. Recall that Burna Boy on February 28th 2019 released a hit song titled “Dangote” off his fourth studio album African Giant.
Just finding out 6years later, Dangote said he reached out to his team to send Burna Boy an invitation. The Africa richest man said that he has been so busy with business that he does not have time for music for years now.
Dangote said a “Thank You” to Burna Boy stressing that he is honoured that his handwork inspired Afrobeats legend like Burna Boy to use his name to sing a song.
In his words; “I only got to listen to the song you released about me last week and I immediately told my team to send you an invitation. Discovered you released it years ago but I’m just so busy with business that I don’t have spare time for music haha. But thank you. Honored that my hardwork inspired a song from a high profile African music legend like you. Let’s have some dinner.”
