Nigerians React As Mercy Eke Dedicates New Lamborghini in Church, Netizens Say "EFCC Should Investigate her As She Has No Source Of Income"

Popular reality TV star Mercy Eke has caused a stir after dedicating her newly purchased Lamborghini in church, enveloping the luxury vehicle in prayers.

The Big Brother Naija winner recently announced her acquisition of the high-end car, sharing a video of the dedication ceremony on social media. In the clip, her pastor is seen praying over the vehicle, asking that it be used for the glory of God.

Sharing the moment with her followers, Mercy Eke captioned the post:

"And our baby goes to church… I return all the glory to God."

Mixed Reactions from Netizens

The video quickly went viral, drawing mixed reactions from fans and critics alike. While some praised Mercy for acknowledging God’s blessings, others questioned the nature of the dedication.

A social media user, @iwuchukwuchide1, commented:

"I am crying 😂😂😭😭💀 As how? And why is she making a video? 😂"

Another user, @TheTifeFab, wrote:

"Angels in heaven won’t want to switch from Channel Nigeria because our entertainment is too lit 🤣"

Some users defended Mercy’s decision, emphasizing the inclusivity of the church. @BENNkrypt stated:

"The church is a really good place. Come as you are; we don’t judge. If you are crying, we’ll cry with you. If you are celebrating, we’ll celebrate with you and thank God."

"What is her Source Of Income?"

"EFCC should invite her immediately"

However, others were more skeptical. @OmotayoSolomo10 remarked:

"Nonsense! I hope she tells the church how she got it and the hustle she did."

The "Sex-for-Lambo" Scandal

Mercy’s car dedication comes amid a controversy involving singer Burna Boy and socialite Sophia Egbueje. Sophia had earlier alleged that Burna Boy promised her a Lamborghini in exchange for sexual favors but failed to deliver. Following the backlash, she went ahead and bought herself the car.

With this backdrop, some critics speculated about Mercy’s source of income, while others simply saw the dedication as a social media stunt.

Despite the mixed reactions, Mercy Eke remains unapologetic about her success, using the moment to express gratitude for her achievements.

As the video continues to trend, Mercy Eke’s dedication ceremony has reignited debates about wealth, faith, and public perception in Nigeria’s entertainment industry. Whether viewed as an act of thanksgiving or an unnecessary display, one thing is certain—Mercy Eke knows how to keep the spotlight on her.
