Boston Officially Declares March 2nd As ‘Burna Boy’ Day In The City



Grammy Award-winning singer Burna Boy has become the latest Nigerian artiste to have a day named after him in the United States.
The city of Boston in Massachusetts, United States of America has declared March 2nd as Burna Boy Day in honor of the singer with Saturday being the first celebration.
The news was revealed in a press release of the Boston City Council signed by Councillor Ruthzee Louijeune, which states that Burna Boy was honored in recognition of his performances and advocacy works.
The document reads in part, “Through his performances and advocacy work, Burna Boy amplifies the voices of marginalized communities and advocates for their recognition and rights, using his platform not only to entertain but also to educate and inspire, starting conversations about social justice, equity, and representation. Nigeria is the largest source of African immigration in the United States and Massachusetts is one of the top 10 states with the highest Nigerian-born population, according to the American Community Survey.”
The document continues, “Boston’s commitment to recognizing and celebrating culture and diversity is evident in the range of cultural events, festivals, and community initiatives that showcase the city’s multicultural landscape and, whereas, Burna Boy’s legacy serves as a reminder of possibility, reminding us to continue amplifying voices that have long been silenced or overlooked, now, therefore be it resolved: That March 2, 2024 is designated Burna Boy Day in the City of Boston.”
