A Nigerian man who became an internet sensation in 2022 after receiving a “bombastic side eye” from popular nightlife boss Cubana Chief Priest has resurfaced online with fresh allegations against the businessman.

Following the attention, Cubana Chiefpriest surprised many by gifting the young man N500,000, a gesture that was widely applauded at the time.

However, in 2023, the recipient admitted publicly that he had squandered the money lavishly, a confession that also generated mixed reactions online.

Fast forward to 2025, the same man has returned to social media with a different narrative. In a strongly worded video, he claimed that since he received the money, his life has gone downhill.

According to him, the cash gift may have spiritually affected his destiny.

He stated in the video

“Make una beg Cubana Chief Priest make him send him aza. I wan credit am him money back. Him money dey cause problems for my life. E come be like say dem steal person glory. I wan recover my glory back.”

He further insisted that people exaggerate the amount he received, clarifying that he only collected N500,000 and not the millions many assumed.

In the same video, the young man threatened legal action, stating that he would take the businessman to court if necessary.
