Pascal Okechukwu, widely recognized as Cubana Chiefpriest-a prominent businessman and entertainer-has recently ignited controversy by assigning a provocative nickname to his adversary, Burna Boy (Ebunoluwa Damini Ogulu).
While performing in Uyo, located in Akwa Ibom State, Cubana Chiefpriest shared the stage with his close associate Davido, sparking heated discussions with his comments.
During the event, when a fan brought up Burna Boy’s name, Cubana Chiefpriest mockingly called him “Bingo,” a term commonly associated with dogs, insinuating that Burna Boy might be harboring jealousy over his rising prominence and achievements in the entertainment scene.
In the same social media update, Cubana Chiefpriest showered Davido with accolades, asserting that Afrobeat would be like an illegitimate offspring without Davido’s influence. He went further to label Davido as the “001 of Afrobeat” and hailed him as the “godfather” of the genre.
This proclamation stirred a variety of responses from fans. Some accused Cubana Chiefpriest of deliberately taunting Burna Boy, while others called on his rumored partner, Hellen Ati, to defend him online as she has done in the past. Many followers expressed nostalgia for her outspoken presence on social media and hoped she would return soon.
It is important to highlight that the friction between Burna Boy and Cubana Chiefpriest is rumored to stem from personal issues involving Hellen Ati.
