Nigerian Grammy award winner Damini Ogulu, known as Burna Boy, has reacted to a fresh controversy involving him and Lagos-based socialite Sophia Egbueje.
On Thursday, social media was abuzz when leaked voice notes surfaced, sparking controversy over claims that Burna Boy failed to deliver on his promise of gifting Sophia a luxury car after an alleged intimate encounter.
In November 2024, Sophia, known for her extravagant lifestyle and international travels, made headlines for purchasing a Lamborghini Urus, reportedly worth over N500 million.
Reacting in an Instagram Story on Friday, Burna Boy responded in Nigerian Pidgin: “Noh do noh do Mo sa so fun, if you noh get me, forget about it, I no buy Lambo is that why you are shouting.
“Dem dey where dem dey, I no dey see them,” he said.
His response suggested that he was unbothered by the allegations and had no interest in addressing the claims further.
Before responding, Burna Boy shared clips of himself driving a Ferrari, flaunting a luxury watch, and highlighting an empty bed in his private jet, which fans saw as a subtle clapback.
The leaked voice notes allegedly spotlighted a conversation between Sophia and her sister, venting about social media influencer Ama Reginald.
In the alleged recordings, Sophia claimed that her ex-friend Ama encouraged her to take Burna Boy seriously because he was known for spoiling women with expensive gifts.
“She (Ama) was like, ‘Babe, you should take him (Burna Boy) seriously. You know it’s him that bought Stefflon Don a Cullinan. He spends on girls. Just try and take him seriously,’” Sophia said in the leaked voice note.
