Patrick Doyle Criticizes Sophia Egbueje for Flaunting Lamborghini Amidst Sex-for-Lambo Scandal
Veteran Nollywood actor Patrick Doyle has taken a strong stance against socialite Sophia Egbueje, condemning her for flaunting her new Lamborghini despite the controversy surrounding her alleged transaction with singer Burna Boy.
The drama unfolded last week when leaked audio surfaced, in which Sophia accused Burna Boy of reneging on his promise to buy her a Lamborghini after an alleged affair. In response, she took to social media, boasting that she had acquired the luxury vehicle herself, an act that has since fueled even more debate.
Patrick Doyle’s Fiery Response
Doyle did not hold back in his criticism, questioning the moral values of those who celebrated Sophia’s display of wealth. He expressed his dismay over how some individuals are romanticizing iniquity instead of upholding integrity.
In a strongly worded post, he wrote:
"She boasted about the value of her wristwatch and flaunted a 600 million Naira car. The combined value of both items is in the range of 650 to 750 million Naira.
"Some half-wits were impressed and effusively congratulated her as she smiled and flaunted both items, as if we hadn’t heard about her shameful means of livelihood."
He also pointed out the irony of her flaunting such luxury while members of her extended family might be struggling financially.
"Meanwhile, I can bet that there are members of her extended family who are going through a tough time. The romanticizing of iniquity has become the stock-in-trade of dim-wits amongst us."
Opinion: A Culture of Wealth Display or a Case of Moral Decline?
Doyle’s stance has sparked discussions about the culture of wealth flaunting, especially on social media. While some believe he is right to call out what he sees as a glorification of questionable lifestyles, others argue that Sophia has a right to spend and show off her wealth as she pleases.
This debate raises bigger questions: Should societal values be placed above personal choices, or should people be free to celebrate their successes regardless of how they attain them?
