This high-profile link-up follows another exclusive gathering just days earlier, where billionaire business mogul Femi Otedola played host to Burna Boy and Wizkid at his Lagos residence.

On February 26, 2025, the Chairman of FBN Holdings welcomed the Afrobeats stars into his opulent home, a setting where influence and artistry intertwined over fine dining.

Otedola, ever the statesman, later took to social media, expressed his admiration for the global dominance of Afrobeats and the privilege of hosting two of its greatest ambassadors.

These meetings are far from mere social calls; they hint at deeper undercurrents. Burna Boy’s presence in these circles signals a confluence of culture and capital, a merging of artistic power with financial might.
