On Monday, 27 February 2023, Burna Boy took to his Instagram account to state the reasons behind his silence amidst the 2023 presidential election.
The singer said that he doesn’t have any candidate he believes in, adding that he has never supported any candidate because he doesn’t want to influence people’s choices and have them disappointed.
“I dunno why it’s such a big deal to some Nigerians that I’ve not been vocal about the elections. Personally, I don’t have a candidate that I believe in,” he wrote.
“I’ve never supported any political party or candidate in my life because I don’t want to make you vote and then blame me when the person f*cks up as usual. That being said, I hope all votes count and the best man wins.”
