Oscar MBO’s Gift Sparks Debate Among Fans

• Oscar MBO reportedly purchased a luxury car for his girlfriend and mother of his child, Lerato Phasha
• Footage from their visit to the car dealership has surfaced, showing everything from the signing process to them driving off in the elegant multi-million-rand vehicle
• The revelation, however, led to speculation among social media users regarding the car’s actual ownership, with some criticizing MBO for indulging his partner

The Yes God artist is said to have gone all out for his girlfriend and mother of his child, Lerato Phasha, allegedly presenting her with a luxury vehicle valued at millions, a gesture that has polarized Mzansi.

On March 19, 2026, a clip appeared showing the couple’s visit to the dealership, where they arrived in the DJ’s BMW X5.

The video depicts them walking inside, with MBO seen completing paperwork alongside a sales representative, before he and his fiancée head over to the showroom, holding champagne flutes, to receive their new acquisition – a freshly purchased R1.6 million BMW M2.

This extravagant purchase follows another significant event in the DJ’s life, as he had recently gone viral for constructing a family home shortly after welcoming his child.

Even though a X user, MDN News, suggested the vehicle was intended for Phasha, the video presented a different narrative, showing MBO behind the wheel as they departed the dealership.

This detail, along with footage of MBO signing the paperwork, led to increased skepticism on social media, with many questioning if the car was genuinely a gift for his partner or merely another vehicle for his collection.

As the video circulated online, amassing numerous views and a variety of responses, users dubbed “Twitter detectives” eagerly examined every detail of the event.

Public response to Oscar MBO’s car purchase

While some fans congratulated the couple, viewing it as a significant victory for black love and the glamorous lifestyle they embody, many skeptics noted that the car’s registration and the driving duties seemed to belong to MBO rather than his partner. Critics argued that had the car been a gift for Phasha, she would likely be signing the documents and driving.

its_khumo voiced:

“Also, why is he the one signing the papers if the car is hers?”

Nkabiikazii criticized:

“He is so performative, this car is his, man.”

Rainbowezzer wondered:

“Why am I feeling like he bought it for himself? An M2? She couldn’t pick an X2, or GLC or something? A whole M2?”

ThabangKgosanax speculated:

“The man bought that car for himself.”

“Huh? But he’s the one behind the steering wheel.”
