During Seyi Tinubu’s visit to Imo State over the activities of the City Boy Movement, Cubana Chiefpriest was seen with him on stage, delivering a speech.
He revealed that in the past election, he did not support Tinubu because he wanted to be an “Igbo boy”. However, he described this as the biggest mistake of his life.
He added that he was a fool then but has since changed his mind. Cubana Chiefpriest also likened his political choices to food, saying Peter Obi (whom he supported in the first election) was his “first food,” while Tinubu is now his “second food” and the “real food.”
