Why I don’t go into politics – Burna Boy confesses

The popular Nigerian singer, Burna Boy has revealed reason he has not been actively involved in politics.

Burna Boy, who recently released his sixth album ‘Love Damini’, in a podcast with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1, confessed that he is not naturally drawn to politics.

The Grammy-award-winning singer said he has also decided not to participate in politics.

The singer said he has got no faith in anyone attempting to play God.

According to the “Twice as Tall” crooner, he has moved away and expects nothing from politicians while sticking firmly to his craft.

“I’ve turned down things that even greater men than me could not turn down. Because I don’t want any involvement in politics and trickery. And I’ve always made my stance clear where all of that is concerned, so as you know, the reason for surprise.

“It’s like drinking water. It’s natural for me. I can only speak for now because I don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow as regards to the world, and who may come into the picture.

“I can’t really say, but I can speak for today. As of today, I don’t believe that there’s anybody that’s qualified enough to play God.

“It is not something that I blame anyone for. Because at the end of the day, there is God. So that’s who we should be looking up to. Everything else is going to be flawed.

“So for me, that is why I stick to music, and I don’t really… At this point, I feel like I’ve seen all there to see about the realities and everything,” he said.
