When a fan asked Ahmad to confirm if Burna Boy had truly converted, he replied that some of the singer’s associates claimed he had, but Burna Boy himself hadn’t officially confirmed.
Rahman Jago, however, categorically stated that Burna Boy has converted to Islam, writing, “He converted.” He is now a Muslim.”
Burna Boy, who comes from a Christian background, stated in a recent podcast that he had embraced Islam “at some point” in pursuit of truth.
He confirmed his conversion during a livestream with Plaueboymax, where he shared his views on creation.
