Superstar singer and Grammy Award winner, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, has stated that he was not ready to become a father yet.
The 32-year-old artist made this revelation during an Instagram live session on Wednesday, responding to a curious fan’s question.
Addressing the fan, Burna Boy explained his decision, emphasising the importance of being able to provide proper attention and care for his future children. “Why haven’t I had kids yet? Bro, because I don’t want to have kids yet. Have you seen my mum the way she loves me? Have you seen my dad the way he loves me? I know I can’t give that to anyone right now with the life I’m living,” he said.
He continued, “So until I’m settled and I can be there for my children every day, I’m not having no kid. I feel like my kids deserve better than I got. And I got both my mum and dad, so you understand?”
Burna Boy also took the opportunity to dismiss rumours about his ability to father a child. “When I see the bants and the things people say [about me not being able to have kids], I said this is unimportant. Let’s assume that it is true that I couldn’t even have kids, you know that there’s something called IVF? But that is not even true,” the ‘Common Person’ crooner clarified.
