Popular Nigerian singer, Damini Ogulu also known as Burna Boy, has revealed that he intends to spend this year’s Christmas with his grandmother.

According to the Grammy winner, his grandma is the inspiration behind his song titled ‘Thanks’ off his latest album, ‘I Told Them’.

Burna Boy made this known through Twitter (X) on Sunday, adding that he recorded the song because of there was a time she often wanted him to come home but that has changed.

The Afrobeats star explained that now whenever he returns home, the senior Ogulu will be quick to ask him to leave.

He went on to inform fans that he would spend time with only his grandma this Yuletide season, so that peace can reign.

Burna wrote: “My grandma used to be crying for me to come back home; now she’s on edge every time I come back home and is already asking when I’m leaving. This is why I made ‘Thanks’. I’m rolling with only her this December for peace to reign.”

In another news…

CorrectNG recalls that last December, Peter Okoye, also known as Mr P stated that entertainers are like goats that music lovers use while celebrating Christmas.

He said musicians and other performing acts hardly spend time with their family during the festive period because they are always fully booked for shows and events.

Mr P made the statement during the premiere of actress, Funke Akindele’s ‘Battle on Buka Street,’ a comedy-drama movie.

When questioned about how he usually spends the festive period and what he intends to do this year, the singer said he would not be traveling with his family because this is a money-making period for entertainers.

Peter said; “We (entertainers) are the goats used in celebrating Christmas. We go to concerts and shows and don’t have time to celebrate Christmas. Do you want me to tell you that I am going to travel with my family? No now, it is a money-making period.”
