Bose Ogulu, Burna Boy’s mom turns into a prayer warrior after her son swore on her name. On Wednesday, April 8, 2026, during a livestream with singer Shallipopi, Burna Boy swore on his mother’s life to deny claims that he and his team brutally assaulted DJ Tunez. Burna Boy insisted he was the only one involved and said he just delivered two slaps to DJ Tunez at a Lagos club, brushing off rumors that his 10-man crew helped in the attack. He even went as far as saying that if he was lying, the god Ogun should take his mother to meet Wizkid’s late mother, a statement that sparked major backlash worldwide for being insensitive.
This drama started when Wizkid accused Burna Boy and his gang of jumping DJ Tunez, who is Wizkid’s official DJ, over a disagreement about music choices. Burna Boy stuck to his story of being the only one involved, but soon after, a video went viral showing a group beating up the DJ on the floor, contradicting Burna Boy’s claims. This whole incident highlights the tense rivalries in the music industry and has led to the Nigerian DJ Association temporarily banning Burna Boy’s music. To make matters worse, Wizkid mocked Burna Boy for a “towel dance” he did to celebrate the incident, calling him a “Diddy babe” in a series of heated tweets.
Feeling the heavy spiritual and social weight of her son’s words, Bose Ogulu was seen in a viral video with members of the Spaceship crew, deeply praying in Yoruba. She was heard saying, “Oloun ma je a remi kemi,” which means she’s asking God not to let her witness any harm or have her life cut short because of these kinds of declarations.
