Deji Adeyanju criticizes Burna Boy’s $30k gift to Cubana’s brother

 

Popular Nigerian activist and newly called-to-bar lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, has stirred conversations online after criticizing Grammy-winning artist Burna Boy for offering $30,000 to Bethel, the alleged younger brother of socialite Cubana Chiefpriest.

 

The incident, which has dominated social media in recent days, involved Burna Boy giving the hefty sum during his public feud with Chiefpriest. Adeyanju, however, labeled the gesture as “clout chasing” and questioned its sincerity.

 

 

Taking to Twitter, Adeyanju shared his thoughts, describing Burna Boy’s action as unnecessary. He argued that the singer has poor people in his extended family who deserve help more than an alleged stranger connected to Chiefpriest.

 

“The person that gave $30k for clout has more poor people in his extended family than those in Chiefpriest’s family. Even if the guy is Chiefpriest’s brother, no one owes him anything,” Adeyanju tweeted.

 

The activist further stated that he would never assist someone who publicly demands help, even if they were family. “We must stop enabling entitled behavior. Wealth is not gifted but earned,” he added.

 

Adeyanju’s comments sparked mixed reactions on social media. While some supported his stance, others defended Burna Boy, praising his generosity.

 

– @omoopee_ tweeted: “Helping others should never be reduced to clout chasing. A $30k gift is life-changing.”

– @Captainbee remarked: “Throwing $30k to prove wealth is unnecessary.”

 

Cubana Chiefpriest has yet to comment extensively on the issue, but an old interview resurfaced online where Bethel clarified his relationship with the celebrity barman. Meanwhile, Bethel responded to critics, insisting he was not asking for handouts but seeking opportunities.

 

 

This controversy comes shortly after Adeyanju officially became a lawyer. In a previous interview, he pledged to offer free legal services to underprivileged Nigerians and advocate for corruption investigations.

 

The ongoing debate highlights broader societal issues around wealth, entitlement, and public generosity.
