Twitter users are calling out the famed African giant, Burna Boy for not lending his voice to the #EndSARS movement.

Many have compared the inaction of the popular musician to the quick response of other popular artistes like Falz, Runtown and Wizkid in the campaign against the Special Anti-Robbery Squad.

Here are some of their reactions:

@_MzJayde: “let me hear Burna claim he’s African Giant…someone that’s twice asleep”

@MrOdanz:  “It is day 3 of Nigerians protesting against SARS brutality and our African giant is still missing in action, Is everything okay with him?”

@TheAhmd_: “Burna boy has to be called out because he exploited and profited off the ‘voice of the people’, ‘Fela reincarnated’ narrative he used to push his brand and music.

“It’s convenient to be the African giant when fighting for Coachella font but not when people are actually dying?”
