Mercy Eke shows off Lamborghini as Burna Boy, Sophia trend
Reality TV star Mercy Eke has captured attention after flaunting her brand-new Lamborghini, just as drama unfolds between music star Burna Boy and socialite Sophia Egbueje over an alleged promise to buy the luxury car.
On Thursday, Burna Boy, whose real name is Damini Ogulu, trended across social media platforms after Sophia was heard in a leaked phone call, claiming the Grammy-winning singer assured her he would cover the cost of a Lamborghini she wanted.
As social media buzzed with reactions, Mercy, fondly called ‘Lambo’ by fans, took to Instagram on Friday to reveal her own Lamborghini. She posted a video showing the sleek orange car, setting the internet ablaze with speculations.
Dressed in an all-black outfit, the former Big Brother Naija winner posed confidently in front of her latest ride, holding a bouquet wrapped in matching orange paper. The celebratory moment was further highlighted by black and white balloons adorning the background.

BBNaija star Kassia added, “Lamborghini Mercy congratulations queen .”
Actress Erica Nlewedim also joined in, saying, “Don’t playyyyy .”

Now, with Mercy unveiling her Lamborghini at the height of Sophia’s controversy with Burna Boy, fans can’t help but draw connections. Coincidence or a subtle message? Either way, Mercy Eke knows how to stay in the spotlight.
