Grammy Award-winning artist, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, has gifted himself a new multi-million dollar Bugatti Chiron.
Venuum, Dubai-based luxury car customisation shop, also known as Venuum Black, had announced the creation of a bespoke carbon fiber widebody kit for the project.
The project marks both the first Bugatti Chiron in Nigeria and what Venuum claims to be the world’s first Widebody Bugatti Chiron.
The custom shop made the announcement in a post on its Instagram page, including a video of Burna Boy with members of the Venuum team.
“VENUUM is officially creating the world’s first Widebody for the Bugatti Chiron. A one-of-one project built for someone very special to us, a member of the VENUUM family who is achieving massive success worldwide — @burnaboygram,” the post read.
“This is not just a car. This is a fully bespoke vision, designed from scratch to push the Bugatti Chiron into a completely different dimension.”
“In just a few weeks, the world will finally see the result. And honestly… it’s going to be absolutely brutal. Something never seen before.
“We are proud to be part of such an iconic project and even more proud to create it for someone we truly appreciate. Stay tuned… because 2026 is coming with huge surprises.”
Burna Boy had earlier shared a teaser about the car in a post on his Instagram page, saying, “I want a Bugatti Venuum Chiron, something one of one, diamonds on the car and the key holder”.
However, controversy has trailed reports of the car’s price. Abuja-based car dealer, @abujacar, initially claimed in a post on X that the customised Bugatti was worth ₦2 billion, but later revised the figure to ₦9 billion without offering any explanation for the change.
According to reports, Bugatti Chirons typically sell for between $3.5 million and more than $5 million, depending on the model, rarity, and level of customization.
As of the time of filing this report, neither Burna Boy nor Venuum has shared any video or images showing the singer taking delivery of the car.
The Widebody Bugatti Chiron becomes the latest hypercar in Burna Boy’s impressive garage, sitting alongside other exotics like his Lamborghini Revuelto and Rolls-Royce Spectre.
