Cubana Chief Priest, a popular Nigerian socialite and businessman, has announced he’ll work against Peter Obi’s 2027 presidential bid, marking a significant shift from his 2023 Labour Party support.
This declaration came during an Instagram exchange, where he confirmed his new alignment with the pro-Tinubu “City Boy Movement”.
Critics reminded him of past EFCC encounters, but he dismissed concerns, saying “If you never go EFCC for Naija, you never make am” (If you haven’t been to the EFCC in Nigeria, you haven’t made it).
The debate also touched on South-East regional development, with Cubana Chief Priest questioning critics’ contributions.
This shift coincides with Obi Cubana’s appointment as South-East Director of the City Boy Movement, sparking discussions on social media about influential South-East businessmen’s political direction ahead of 2027.
