A fresh wave of drama has erupted from The Real Housewives of Lagos Season 3 as Sophia Momodu, fashion entrepreneur and baby mama to Afrobeats star Davido, finds herself at the center of a controversy over a boat ownership claim.
In an earlier episode of the reality show, Sophia made a bold statement during a group outing arranged by fellow cast member Dabota Lawson, saying:
“I don’t book a boat, I own a boat.”
The declaration quickly raised eyebrows, with Dabota confronting her in a recent episode, questioning the authenticity of the claim:
“Your lifestyle doesn’t affect me because I don’t go around claiming what I don’t own. Do you know what it means to own a boat or buy a boat?”
In response, Sophia clarified that the boat in question belongs to her boyfriend and is simply named after her — not personally owned by her.
However, the tension escalated when Dabota alleged she personally knows the real owner of the boat, doubling down on accusations that Sophia was being disingenuous:
“The same way you were claiming a house that wasn’t yours, including a boat that isn’t yours. Who are you trying to impress?”
Social Media Reactions
The episode stirred a flurry of online commentary:
-
Mariam Adun: “Sophia lied for what exactly?”
-
Temmie: “I still don’t believe she doesn’t own a boat. E shock me.”
-
Okafor: “I feel for Sophia at this point. Whatever has made up with lies is really sad.”
-
Gold: “Sophia for no just come this show. She don reduce her steeze.”
-
Remzy: “Dabota is salvage abeg.”
As the drama continues to unfold, viewers are left wondering: was it a harmless flex, or is there more to Sophia’s luxury lifestyle than meets the eye?
