The Leaked Audio: A Lamborghini for love?

We woke up on February 27, 2025, hoping to have a great day, little did we know that dinner was gonna served on a platter before bedtime. Social media began buzzing after leaked call recordings notes surfaced.

In the leaked recordings, allegedly featuring Sophia, she vents to someone about her friend Ama Reginald and Burna Boy’s associate, Manny, who persuaded her to meet Burna Boy; promising her a Lamborghini in return. The leaked audio gave us a front-row seat into this messy entanglement

This had us jumping combing through comment sections to get to the root of the matter. By some sheer luck, we found a user who was kind enough to disclose the blog where the original post was posted. We dived in like four-year-olds at a water park for the first time. Some of us followed the blog immediately before it became private.

After a rocky trip, we got to our final bus stop, where the audio recording was. This recording explained the nature of the alleged relationship between Sophia and Burnaboy.

In the tape, Burna Boy purportedly offers Sophia a luxurious Lamborghini in exchange for intimate favours. Sophia however recently made headlines for acquiring a Lamborghini Urus, a high-performance SUV valued at approximately ₦500 million seeing that Burna Boy wouldn’t redeem his pledge.

This revelation sent shockwaves through social media, with fans and critics alike weighing in on the controversial proposition.

A rift between friends: Sophia and Ama

The plot thickened as reports suggested that Sophia and her close friend, influencer Ama Reginald, have had a falling out over the incident. The two were previously known for their close friendship, often sharing joint appearances and collaborative content.

However, the leaked audio and the ensuing scandal appear to have driven a wedge between them, leading to public speculation about the future of their relationship.

Following this news, Bo Hiars, took to her Instagram live session, to narrate her ordeal with Ama Reginald, emphasising the pattern she uses to lure her victims.

Recall that Bo Hairs has previously taken to the internet to express her hurt towards the loss of her friendship with Hilda Baci because of Ama Reginald whom she describes as a “social climber.”

Burna Boy's silence and social media frenzy

While all this was happening, Burna Boy was nowhere to be found. No tweets, no cryptic Instagram posts, no subtle shade; just radio silence.

This only made things worse because, in Nigeria, when you keep quiet, you either did it, or you’re planning your next move.

Meanwhile, Twitter, Instagram, and even TikTok were on fire. Memes flooded the timeline, think pieces were written, and people were choosing sides faster than a presidential election.

Some said Sophia fumbled the bag by exposing the deal, others insisted Burna Boy was wild for even making that offer (if he did), and then there were the neutral spectators just enjoying the drama with popcorn in hand.

Ama Reginald: Caught in the crossfire

Influencer Ama Reginald, who boasts a significant following on social media, now finds herself inadvertently drawn into the controversy. While she has not made any public statements regarding the matter, her association with both parties has led to increased scrutiny of her online activities and relationships; both past and present.
