Afrobeat sensation Ebunoluwa Damini, better known as Burna Boy, turned heads as he drove his newly acquired ₦3.22 billion McLaren through the flooded roads of Lagos.
A viral video showed the singer navigating the luxury vehicle amidst challenging road conditions, sparking excitement among fans. However, many expressed concern over the poor infrastructure, warning that Lagos roads could damage the high-end car. Some suggested he relocate the McLaren to Abuja, where roads are better suited for such vehicles.
Adding to the buzz, Burna Boy’s security guard was seen posing with the car and taking a playful jab at rival artist Davido, stirring online conversations. The spectacle echoed a similar move by Burna’s friend, Wizkid, who flaunted his own McLaren worth billions in 2024.
Social media reactions highlighted both admiration for Burna Boy’s lavish lifestyle and frustration with Lagos’ road conditions. Comments included @aminudtt saying, “Burna fix the road for ur toys na,” and @meka.2 urging, “Take that car to Abuja.” Others, like @igemmate_, noted the car’s value could depreciate due to the rough terrain but encouraged enjoying wealth.
The video underscores Burna Boy’s flair for extravagance while spotlighting ongoing infrastructure challenges in Lagos.
