Burna Boy's Mother Receives Loud Cheers as She Delivers Powerful Speech to Receive His BET Award

Burna Boy has emerged BET Awards' Winner for Best International Act, video category, in the event's most recent edition.

Speaking to the audience while receiving the award on behalf of her son who could not be found at the time the announcement was made, Bose Ogulu, who described her son as restless following his sudden disappearance from the hall, delivered a powerful speech to the cheer of the audience.

"Thank you very much BET," she said. "Thank you Africa. Because that's the constituency for which we got noticed in the first place. And the message from Burna, I believe, would be that every black person should please remember that you were Africans before you became anything else."

This is not the first time the artiste's mother, who doubles as his manager, would impress the audience at an event.
