Burna Boy’s beef with AKA began during xenophobic attacks in South Africa this year. Burna Boy had taken to Twitter to share his thoughts on the attacks. He had also vowed never to set foot in the country after many Nigerians based in South Africa became victims of the attacks. These tweets led to a war of words between the singer and AKA.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng had earlier reported that Nigerian singer Wizkid also congratulated Burna Boy following the announcement of the award nomination. Wizkid posted a congratulatory message in honor of Burna Boy.
