Grammy Award nominee, Burna Boy has cautioned Nigerians from allowing the #EndSARS protests against police brutality become a tribal matter.

This comes after reports that the Obigo and Oyigbo areas of Port Harcourt asr under attack, allegedly by Fulani herdsmen.

In a since-deleted tweet, Burna questioned how the herdsmen were able to attack the areas in Port Harcourt.

He said, “Obigo and Oyigbo Porth Harcourt are under attack. @GovWike @riversstetegov please wake up. Please! How did Fulani herdsmen get to Port Harcourt?!!!”

After confirming that things were calm, Burna pulled down the tweet and said, “Thank God. My PORT HARCOURT people have called me and told me it’s CALM NOW. I Pray No Lives Where Lost.”

In a follow-up tweet, he cautioned people against breaking Nigeria into tribes.

“Please on NO account should this become a Tribal thing. I cannot even believe that can still be in people’s minds in 2020. FIX NIGERIA DONT BREAK IT INTO TRIBES.”
