“Ogun No Go Carry Me!” — Burna boy’s Mum Goes Spiritual

The internet is currently in a state of shock as Bose Ogulu, the powerhouse manager and mother of Grammy-winner Burna Boy, has been forced to seek divine intervention after her son’s tongue went “rogue” during a heated clash with Wizkid.

​The drama reached a boiling point when Burna Boy, while denying claims that his crew helped him assault DJ Tunez, decided to put his own mother’s life on the line to prove his “honesty.” In a move that many fans labeled as “reckless” and “dark,” the Last Last crooner invoked the Yoruba god of iron, swearing:

​“I swear with my mama. If I dey lie, make Ogun carry my mama go anywhere wey Wizkid mama dey.”

​The statement was a double-edged sword, not only risking his mother’s well-being in a spiritual oath but also taking a swipe at Wizkid’s late mother—a move that has set the “Wizkid FC” fanbase on fire.

​Knowing the weight of such words in Yoruba culture, Bose Ogulu didn’t take the “joke” lightly. A viral video has now surfaced showing the matriarch in a fervent prayer session, surrounded by members of the Spaceship crew.

​Looking intense and spirit-filled, she was seen casting away every evil declaration made over her life. Shouting in Yoruba, she prayed: “Oloun ma je a remi kemi!” (May God not let my life be cut short!), as the crew members chorused a loud “Amen.”

​While Mama Burna is busy “fighting in the spirit,” her son is fighting on all other fronts. Following the confirmation that he did indeed “slap” DJ Tunez, the Nigerian DJ Association has reportedly blacklisted his discography.

​Whether it’s the physical fight or the spiritual oath, one thing is clear: the African Giant has stirred a nest of hornets, and even his mother has had to pull out her prayer beads to survive the crossfire.
