Nigerian rapper Speed Darlington has stirred controversy by weighing in on the ongoing saga involving Grammy-winning singer Burna Boy and socialite Sophia Egbueje.
The dispute, which has been making waves online, centres on claims that Burna Boy failed to fulfil a promise to buy Sophia a Lamborghini following an alleged intimate encounter.
The issue gained traction last week after an audio recording leaked, in which Sophia accused the musician of backing out of the supposed agreemenWhile fans debated the authenticity of her claims, Speed Darlington has now added a new layer to the controversy, suggesting that the entire episode was a staged attempt by Burna Boy to counter persistent rumours about his sexuality.
In a video posted to his Instagram story, Speed Darlington alleged that Burna Boy orchestrated the scandal, paying Sophia to create the illusion that he is romantically involved with women. According to him, the plan was meant to silence speculation about the singer’s personal life.
He went further to claim that Burna Boy has been deliberately trying to prove his masculinity to the public and that the alleged arrangement with Sophia was just another attempt to maintain a certain image.
This is not the first time Speed Darlington has taken aim at Burna Boy. In the past, he has accused the Last Last hitmaker of benefiting from connections with American music mogul P Diddy, even insinuating that Burna Boy’s Grammy win was influenced by behind-the-scenes dealings.
With these latest claims, the controversy surrounding Burna Boy and Sophia Egbueje continues to dominate conversations online, as fans and critics alike speculate on the true nature of the situation.
