Megastar Burna Boy Receives MFR Award From President Buhari (Details)

On Tuesday, October 11, 2022, Nigerian Megastar Burna Boy received the honorary title of Member of the Order of the Federal Republic.

In a ceremony conducted at the Government House Villa in Aso Rock on October 11, 2022, President Buhari gave honors to the 437 nominees for National Awards.

One of the 75 recipients of the Member of the Order of the Federal Republic honor was Afrobeats superstar Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, better known as Burna Boy.

Burna Boy’s father accepted the honor on his son’s behalf. It was given to him in honor of his ground-breaking achievements, which include being the first contemporary Nigerian artist to win a Grammy.

Megastar Burna Boy is among the best singers in Africa in part because his voice is authentic. We might say that he was born with a musical skill; he has a natural ability. He decides to stick with one genre of music and create his own distinctive style despite the complexity of music and its wide variety.

After releasing “Like to Party,” the main song off his debut studio album, L.I.F.E., in 2012, he became famous (2013). 2017 saw Burna Boy sign with Warner Music Group internationally and Bad Habit/Atlantic Records in the US. Outside, his third studio album, was his first major-label release.
