Burna Boy is currently in Cote d'Ivoire as Nigeria prepare to take on Guinea-Bissau in their final group game at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

Grammy award winner Burna Boy has landed in Abidjan two days before Nigeria take on Guinea-Bissau in their final Group A match at the Africa Cup of Nations.

Burna Boy, also known as Odogwu, arrived in the commercial capital of Cote d'Ivoire in the early hours of Saturday morning.

The Grammy award winner is expected to hit the stage later tonight, where he will headline the  STELL'AIR festival.

The Super Eagles are on course to make the round of 16 and could finish top of the group with a win over the Guineans.

The team, currently camped in Abidjan, has been visited by a few personalities, with Burna Boy likely to be the latest.
