He is now a muslim - Rahman Jago confirms Burna Boy's conversion

Socialite and close associate of Burna Boy, Rahman Jago has confirmed the conversion of the grammy-winning Afrobeats star to Islam.

Jago shared a video on his X handle featuring the singer praising Allah with the caption “Allahu Akbar”.

Jago explicitly confirmed the transition in follow-up social media interactions, stating, “He converted. He is now a Muslim”.

The news follows a podcast appearance several weeks ago where Burna Boy mentioned embracing Islam at some point during a personal search for truth.

While high-profile figures like Bashir Ahmad, a former presidential aide, have publicly wished the singer ease on his new journey, Burna Boy himself has yet to provide a personal official confirmation. This development comes just weeks after the singer missed out on the Best Global Music Album category at the 2026 Grammy Awards, where his album No Sign of Weakness lost to Brazilian icons Caetano Veloso and Maria Bethânia.
