‘Lagos Loves Damini’ concert: Olisa Adibua clarifies role

Olisa Adibua Nigerian media personality has clarified the role he played in Burna Boy’s ‘Lagos Love Damini’ concert held on 1st January 2023 at the Eko Energy City Lagos.

According to the organizers WondaX, the sold-out concert attracted over 30,000 fans who trooped out on the first day of the year to see the Grammy winner.

Criticism however trailed the event as fans waited for over 8 hours for Burna Boy who didn’t show up until 3 am and was made messier by his uncomplimentary remarks

The show’s poor organization and Burna Boy’s condescending behavior led to criticism across social media. Burna Boy reacted to this by putting out a statement on Instagram pinning the show’s poor organization on a number of people including WondaX and Olisa Adibua.

But the media personality has reacted to Burna Boy’s claim that he was culpable in the poor organization of the ‘Lagos Love Damini’ concert.

In a post on his Instagram account, Olisa Adibua stated that he was contacted by a company called Creative Economy Catalyst to help secure artists for their December events.

He revealed that Burna Boy was among the artists he was hired to secure and he also helped with crafting the concert theme and with ticket sales.

Olisa Adibua stated that he was not part of the organizers and didn’t attend any of the event meetings. He further stated that the account of what transpired at the concert was relayed to him by third parties as he didn’t attend the event.
