A Twitter user who goes by the handle @Iamsilvar (Duke of Lagos) has come out to accuse Nigerian superstar Burna Boy after his convoy allegedly damaged his car in Lekki Phase 1, Lagos State.
He posted a video of himself trying to get an apology, but we could not verify if it was indeed Burna Boy in the other vehicle. See his tweet below:

The Twitter user further claimed that while he tried to extract an apology from Burna Boy and his boys, he got threats instead.
“They all drove into Vintage Park Estate by Chisco behind Toyota company in Lekki, which I believe they knew I have no access to the Estate,” Duke of Lagos (@Iamsilvar) later tweeted. “Please I don’t have money am just a mechanic, all I want is just [for] him [to] acknowledge and apologise,” he added.

There have been mixed reactions to the thread with some opting to not believe @Iamsilvar while others joined forces to call out Burna Boy.
There is also the matter of inconsistency in the thread that the accuser posted. Here is one of his reply that cast doubt on the truthfulness of the whole issue:
Boss that’s my small car, I have two other cars 2010 Corrolla and 2012 Toyota Rav4. I don’t need his fxcking money, I can fix my car but that act is totally wrong.

Meanwhile, Burna Boy himself has said nothing about the incidence.
He should compensate the guy
