Burna Boy Proves Cheating Is An African Culture!

When news broke that Nigerian music sensation had broken up with ‘heartthrob’, Stefflon Don, the internet went into a frenzy. They seemed like the perfect couple. Those who know her and watch her music videos, know how physically endowed she is. She is the dream woman for any typical African man. So, why then was Burna Boy left so unsatisfied that he had to cheat on this damsel?

Oh! JoPearl (the woman who caused this commotion)! It soon surfaced that this was Burna’s side chik (other girlfriend) and the principal officer of Burna’s distraction and lack of attention towards his main chik! Just as the multitude were about to stone him for his sin, pictures of this side chik began to roll in. The stones dropped from the hands of the accusers. Their eyes lit up. She is the perfect specimen of a real African woman: thick; sensual; erotic; wide hipped; thought provoking and with a very black skin! Many licked their lips and wished they were in the shoes of the cheater!

Truth be told: being tempted by a big beautiful woman (bbw) is no excuse to betray the one you love. Nonetheless, this latest act goes to show the nature of the African man—genetically polygamous; sexually driven; and more insatiable than Oliver Twist! Mind you, it is in Africa that the ideology of the world being a “man’s world” holds the most significance.

If we are being realistic, the facts surrounding celebrity romance doesn’t end well. Jay Z has cheated on Beyonce countless times. Iyke Turner cheated on Tina Turner multiple times. At the end, Tina gave up on love, calling it a “second hand emotion”! On the local scene, Tuface loved actress, Annie Macauley (now Idibia), so much so that he impregnated two more women (that we know of) and fathered five children! Amazing!

This is the sad reality of a celebrity male: The world is at your feet; and the female fans—who adore you like a mini god—are at your beck and call. Tons of them even offer free sex and beg for it. There are just endless possibilities and for a naturally randy celebrity, it is all too much to resist. 

Add of that and mix it up with a regular African male specie and you have a recipe for disaster! Burna, himself, once admitted: “which African man no like big yansh” (which African man doesn’t like a big behind)? Very few, I must admit! Slim ladies may hold sway abroad, but in Africa, the BBW is the center of attraction. Catcalls follow them everywhere they go. Even husbands abandon their wives at home just to “smash” these big things for a night! An African craze if you ask me!

I understand the outcry, by feminists especially, regarding this whole situation, but even they sound hypocritical in their criticism of the Grammy Award nominee. Least they forget, not so long ago, when Jada Pinkett cheated on Will Smith, they trivialized it and made it look alright. Not much fuzz was made. I guess, now, “the chickens have come home to roost” in mother Africa—the home of cheating!

It might sound harsh and totally irrational, but in Africa, Burna Boy’s action only buttresses the fact that cheating is an African way of life! Annoyingly, the same rule doesn’t apply to women, for the ancestors and their descendants will always reaffirm that it is a man’s world in Africa.

Supporting Burna Boy in anyway is damn right outrageous, but honestly, that side chik—with whom Burna Boy cheated—can make even the Reverend Pope reconsider his holy position! Hmm! May God save us all.
