Nigerian music sensation Burna Boy has achieved another milestone in his career, making African history with back-to-back sold-out shows at the Scotia Bank Arena in Canada.
The Grammy-winning artist became the first Nigerian artist to accomplish this feat, dazzling fans on the 24th and 25th of February 2024 during the “I Told Them Tour”
The Scotia Bank Arena, with a capacity of 19,000, was packed to the brim for two consecutive nights, showcasing Burna Boy’s remarkable music-making ability and stellar stage performance.
The weekly “Afrobeats To The World” Space on X featured host Emmanuel Owoniyi describing the concert as a remarkable experience, emphasizing that Burna Boy and his Outsiders band delivered value for the audience’s money.
