In a recent television interview, Bose Ogulu disclosed that she occasionally confiscates Burna Boy’s phone when his Instagram Live sessions spiral into controversy.

She emphasized that rather than suppressing his authenticity, she chooses to embrace it—understanding that his raw emotions fuel both his music and his connection with fans.

“He’s like a delicate ecosystem—tamper too much, and the magic unravels,” she explained. “His fans adore his unapologetic nature, even when it stirs debate.”

Ogulu admits she draws the line when his live interactions become too volatile, stepping in to intervene before things escalate.

Renowned for his candid online persona, Burna Boy frequently ignites conversations with his bold opinions and confrontational tone during broadcasts.

“That’s simply him being true to himself,” his mother remarked, acknowledging the fine balance between artistic freedom and digital diplomacy.
