Popular Nigerian socialite and celebrity barman, Pascal Okechukwu, better known as Cubana Chiefpriest, has come out to clear the air on recent reports making the rounds that he contested and lost in the All Progressives Congress (APC) primary election in Imo State.
The Owerri-born entertainment mogul, who has been in the spotlight for his lavish lifestyle and close association with various politicians, took to his platform to debunk the claims, stating categorically that he never participated in any political primary election.
Setting the Record Straight
Cubana Chiefpriest’s clarification comes amid widespread speculation and viral reports on social media suggesting that the flamboyant businessman had thrown his hat into the political ring, only to suffer a defeat at the APC primaries.
The celebrity barman, known for his influential presence on Instagram where he regularly showcases his luxury lifestyle and business ventures, made it clear that these reports are completely false and should be disregarded by his fans and the general public.
The Power of Misinformation
This incident highlights how quickly misinformation can spread, especially when it involves popular public figures. In Nigeria’s politically charged atmosphere, where celebrities increasingly show interest in politics, it’s easy for false narratives to gain traction.
Cubana Chiefpriest’s association with political figures and his visible support for various politicians during election seasons may have fueled these unfounded rumours. However, showing support and actually contesting for political office are two entirely different things.
Cubana Chiefpriest’s Political Stance
While the Cubana boss has been vocal about his political preferences and has openly associated with politicians across party lines, this clarification shows that he remains focused on his entertainment and business empire rather than seeking political office at this time.
The socialite continues to maintain his position as one of Nigeria’s most influential entertainers and businessmen, with interests spanning hospitality, entertainment, and various entrepreneurial ventures.
As Nigerians continue to navigate the intersection of entertainment and politics, this serves as a reminder to verify information before accepting it as fact, especially in the age of social media where news—both real and fake—spreads like wildfire.
