There’s no Ruger or Buju beef – Buju BNXN insists

Award-winning singer, Daniel Benson professionally known as Buju BNXN has insisted that there is no need between him and his colleague, Ruger.

Buju BNXN also explained why he mentioned the name of the Mavin signee, Ruger at the 15th Headies award.

BNXN said he did that to ensure he stops fans from believing or insinuating an industry beef between himself and his colleague.

The ‘Outside’ crooner who is anticipating a collaboration with Gospel singer, Tope Alabi, spoke to The Nation in an interview and said:

“I needed people to understand that he is the least of my worries, like on a level, if it is competition-wise, talent-wise, or anything he is just the least of my worries, this is not a thing I don’t want people to think there is a Buju and Ruger thing(beef).”

“I needed people to understand that I’m doing me and I am more focused on my music and my journey to even caring about another man’s thing.”

WITHIN NIGERIA recalls Buju BNXN has finally received his 2022 Bentley as promised by the organisers of the Headies for winning the Next Rated Artiste category.

Headies boss, Ayo Animashaun announced this in an Instagram post where he posted photos of himself and the singer with the new car.
