Lagos-based socialite Sophia Egbueje has sparked a firestorm of controversy with a leaked voice note alleging that Grammy-winning artist Burna Boy failed to deliver on a lavish promise.
According to Sophia, the “African Giant” promised her a Lamborghini after an intimate encounter, only to ghost her once the deed was done.
The bombshell claim, which surfaced on February 27, 2025, has set social media ablaze with speculation and debate.
In the emotional audio, Sophia, reportedly 20 years old, claims she “gave him a chance” based on his promise of the luxury car.
However, she alleges that after their rendezvous, Burna Boy stopped replying to her messages, leaving her without the multimillion-naira vehicle she expected.
Posts on X describe her as distraught, with some even claiming she “collapsed” after realizing the promise wouldn’t materialize.
Burna Boy, known for his chart-topping hits and larger-than-life persona, has yet to respond to the allegations.
The lack of concrete evidence beyond Sophia’s voice note has left room for skepticism, with some questioning the authenticity of her story. Neither party has provided documentation or witnesses to substantiate the claims, making it a classic case of he-said-she-said for now.
The incident has reignited conversations about celebrity accountability and the dynamics of transactional relationships in Nigeria’s entertainment scene.
While some X users sympathize with Sophia, others dismiss her story as clout-chasing or an attempt to tarnish the superstar’s reputation. As the saga unfolds, fans and critics alike await Burna Boy’s side of the story or perhaps the sight of a Lamborghini pulling up to Sophia’s door.
Until then, the truth remains as elusive as the promised car.
