Burna Boy clarified that the event was a free show and that he had already performed well beyond the 10 minutes originally scheduled for him.

The singer also revealed that he experiences PTSD, which made the fan’s sudden action of jumping on stage particularly startling for him.

“It was a free show. I was supposed to do 10mins and did almost an hour. Everybody knows my rule about getting on stage and startling me when I’m performing. I had an amazing time with Lagos state last night. Don’t jump on my stage like that. I got PTSD. I love you all. Happy New Year,” he wrote.
