The businessman declared that they would not “remain on the bench” for another four years, adding that removing Tinubu from office is impossible.
He further stated that no other political party comes close. His words quickly drew attention, particularly from critics within the Igbo community who questioned the endorsement.

“Na your money Zenco take buy the bus? Una never see film sef,” he replied.

Chiefpriest is free to support anyone - Dede
A public affairs commentator, Sam Dede, stated that the argument that Chiefpriest betrayed the Igbos shouldn't arise.
He stated:
"Whether Cubana Chiefpriest “betrayed the Igbos” depends on how one interprets politics in a democracy. In a democratic system, every citizen has the right to support any candidate, including Bola Ahmed Tinubu, regardless of ethnicity or regional expectations. Political support is ultimately a personal choice, not a tribal obligation."
