Nigerian famous artist Burna Boy has responded to criticisms surrounding Speed Darlington’s recent arrest and subsequent release on bail after spending three weeks in detention.
The rapper, who was arrested in Owerri, Imo State, was granted bail as announced by lawyer Stanley Alieke in a celebratory Instagram post that sparked excitement among fans.
Addressing the backlash, Burna Boy took to Instagram to share his thoughts, emphasizing how public reactions often lack accountability, but his responses are magnified.
He stated, “When they talk, nobody cares, but when I react, it’s a nuclear disaster. Y’all don’t know how lucky you are that I have too much to lose now.”
He further hinted at the weight of his status, implying that many critics are fortunate due to his restraint. Burna Boy concluded his post on a lighter note, saying, “Anyway, let me just go buy another thing to relax.”
