Actor Patrick Doyle Criticizes Sophia Egbueje for Flaunting Her New Lamborghini Amidst ‘Shameful Means of Livelihood’
Nollywood actor Patrick Doyle has publicly condemned socialite Sophia Egbueje for showcasing her brand-new Lamborghini in light of her controversial “sex-for-Lambo” saga involving popular singer Burna Boy. The situation escalated last week when leaked audio recordings surfaced, revealing Sophia accusing Burna Boy of having an affair with her and failing to keep his promise of buying her a Lamborghini.
In the midst of this scandal, Sophia took to social media to flaunt her new Lamborghini, asserting that she had purchased the car herself after Burna Boy reneged on his commitment. This display of wealth did not sit well with Patrick Doyle, who criticized her for parading her expensive possessions while referring to her means of livelihood as “shameful.”
Doyle expressed his disapproval not only of Sophia’s actions but also of those who congratulated her. In a pointed social media post, he remarked: “She boasted about the value of her wristwatch and displayed a car worth 600 million Naira. The combined value of both items is estimated to be between 650 to 750 million Naira.”
He continued, “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. 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.”
Doyle’s comments reflect a broader societal concern regarding the glorification of wealth acquired through questionable means, particularly in the entertainment industry. His criticism highlights the disparity between public displays of affluence and the underlying moral implications of such lifestyles. The incident has sparked discussions on social media about the values being celebrated in contemporary culture, especially among public figures.
As the conversation continues, many are left questioning the impact of such narratives on younger generations and the importance of accountability in the face of moral ambiguity.
