Benny defends Burna Boy over Sophia's claims
Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Benny reacted strongly to claims that Burna Boy promised Sophia Egbueje a Lamborghini in exchange for bedroom favours.
He argued that the singer, who once gifted an aide a Tesla truck, had not bought such a car for his mother, making Sophia's expectations unreasonable.
Benny shared a video of Burna Boy caring for his Lamborghini and continued mocking Sophia in several posts, even using a clip of Minister Nyesom Wike's interview to ridicule her.
