The incident also sparked an online fight between Wizkid and Burna Boy. Many Nigerians criticised Burna Boy for always getting physical with people, tagging him arrogant.
When asked if she minded that Burna Boy is seen as arrogant, Bose Ogulu responded, "I don't mind, honestly, I don't mind at all. I mean, any adjective they want to attach to you is ok. The thing is, who are you? If knowing your worth and carrying yourself as such is arrogant, then it is a good thing. And I can't apologise for that." She added, "Because I think we were born into a world where we were expected to put our heads down. First is the colour of your skin, the colour of your passport, and for me, my gender. So, I don't understand the concept of that life. I understand that if I know something, I know it, and I expect you to realise that I know it. And if you don't realise that I know it, then, put me to the test."
