Burna Boy (real name Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu) has issued a heartfelt reflection on his spiritual journey, revealing he remains unfulfilled even after transitioning from Christianity to Islam.

In a recent livestream with streamer PlaqueBoyMax, the Grammy-winning Nigerian singer admitted that his deep dive into religious texts has left him more unsettled than certain. “Growing up, I was a Christian and then I converted to Islam.
