Popular Nigerian comedian Okey Bakassi has explained why he was initially worried about the personality of singer Damini Ogulua better known in music circles as Burna Boy.
The humour merchant who opened up in a post on his Instagram page said that he worked together with Burna Boy almost a decade ago on the Globacom tour.
According to Okey Bakassi, Burna Boy’s talent was obvious, but he looked shy off stage but had so much presence on stage.
He added in his post on Instagram that he was initially worried about Burna Boy’s personality because, he had seen so many promising talents decline due to personality issues.
