Grammy-winning Nigerian artist Burna Boy has delivered on his promise to gift ₦45 million to Trita, the brother of socialite Cubana Chief Priest, following a heated social media feud. The unexpected act of generosity has garnered widespread praise and shifted public discourse surrounding the conflict.
Confirmation of the gesture came through Lucky Udu, who shared an emotional video on Instagram celebrating Burna Boy’s commitment. In the video, Udu expressed his astonishment and gratitude, saying, “Oh my goodness, Burna Boy just fulfilled his promise. My head want blow!”
The emotional footage captured the moment Trita knelt before Burna Boy to express his gratitude. In a heartfelt exchange, Trita prayed for Burna Boy, saying, “I hope God gives you wisdom so you can navigate situations like this better in the future.” The moment highlighted a sense of reconciliation and humility from both parties.
Lucky Udu commended Burna Boy’s act, emphasizing its significance. “I respect Burna Boy for this. You’ve answered someone’s prayer, and that means everything,” Udu said. He also encouraged fans to acknowledge Burna Boy’s gesture. “To everyone watching, go to his comment section and thank him,” he added.
Udu revealed plans to bring Trita to Abuja for an exclusive interview, where he would share his story in greater detail. The Instagram post, captioned “Wow! God bless you, @burnaboygram, for fulfilling your promise to @iamtreater,” has since gone viral, sparking conversations about Burna Boy’s generosity.
The ₦45 million gift comes in the wake of a public feud between Burna Boy and Cubana Chief Priest, which began when Burna Boy referred to the socialite as “Owerri Rick Ross” in a cryptic Instagram post. The remark, seen as a jab, led Chief Priest to retaliate by recalling how he once paid Burna Boy ₦1 million to perform as a backup artist at his birthday party in 2018. Chief Priest also questioned the legitimacy of Burna Boy’s Grammy win, suggesting it was influenced by music mogul Diddy.
