Social media commentator Daniel Regha has called out Nigerian singer Buju BXN for his behavior toward a fan of Davido’s 30 Billion Gang (30BG) following a viral incident. The drama began after rumors circulated that Buju was allegedly punched while in South Africa, a claim he denied, but it sparked intense discussions online.
The controversy escalated when a fan, identified as a member of the 30BG fanbase, made fun of Buju on social media. In response, Buju fired back with two tweets, which he later deleted. The exchange caught the attention of Regha, who took issue with the singer’s harsh words toward the fan. According to Regha, Buju’s response was uncalled for and unprofessional, especially considering the fan’s status as a supporter.
Buju’s comments, which included insults toward the fan for being a “family man,” quickly stirred outrage among followers. In one of his deleted tweets, Buju BXN expressed his frustration, saying, “Like bro has kids and is still standing like actual children and na stan?? Misplaced priorities man, I’m so sad for him and his family.” His remark about the fan’s family added fuel to the fire, drawing criticism from many who felt that Buju had crossed the line.
Daniel Regha, known for his outspoken views on social media, was one of the first to address the incident publicly. In a tweet, he condemned Buju for “attacking a fan who supports him,” and emphasized that no celebrity, regardless of their status, should demean or belittle their audience. “Artists need to be more mindful of their behavior online. You can’t insult a fan just because they support another artist,” Regha tweeted, calling for greater respect in the entertainment industry.
Many social media users shared Regha’s sentiments, with several pointing out that Buju’s behavior reflected poorly on him. “It’s disappointing to see a musician belittle someone who’s a fan of their work. Fans are what make you who you are,” one commenter wrote, while another said, “Celebrities should learn to handle criticism with grace and not lash out at fans.”
Buju BXN, who has gained popularity for his music and collaborations, has not publicly responded to the criticism following the deletion of his tweets.
