Yesterday, Burna Boy announced that he would be missing the Afro Nation Festival in Puerto Rico.

He cited personal reasons that could not be avoided.

The Afro Nation Festival in Puerto Rico scheduled to take place from today, Thursday March 24, 2022 to Saturday, March 26, 2022, is set to feature numerous artists one of which had been the African Giant himself.

The African Giant had also dropped a statement expressing how "extremely gutted" he feels to be missing the show in Puerto Rico.

24 hours after this disappointing announcement, the organizers of Afro Nation Puerto Rico made a statement announcing that the award-winning American rapper, Rick Ross will be the artiste replacing Burna Boy on the lineup and in Puerto Rico.

Afro Nation wrote the following statement: "Yesterday we were informed by Burna Boy's team that it was impossible for him to make it to Puerto Rico for his performance at ANPR2022. We have spent the last 24 hours attempting to secure a replacement and are hugely thankful to Rick Ross for stepping in at the last minute t deliver you an incredible show."
