Nigerian socialite and businessman Paschal Okechukwu, better known as Cubana Chief Priest, has finally addressed the wave of criticism trailing his defeat in the APC primary election.

The nightlife entrepreneur, who contested for the All Progressives Congress ticket for the Orsu/Orlu/Oru East federal constituency seat ahead of the 2027 elections, lost the primary to incumbent lawmaker Canice Nwachukwu.

However, rather than appearing disappointed, he shocked many Nigerians with his latest reaction during a live TikTok session with popular content creator Peller.

According to him, some people mocking him online do not understand what is happening behind the scenes.

“To the people insulting me, APC is pampering me and the party is working to my favour,” he said.

The celebrity barman disclosed that a party chairman allegedly bought him a brand-new car after the primary election.

“One of my chairman bought me a brand new car for losing the election and it will be delivered to me tomorrow,” he added.

Legit.ng had previously reported that the socialite claimed President Bola Tinubu does not completely trust him because of his Igbo background and his past relationship with Peter Obi.

According to him, some people within Tinubu’s political circle still view him as someone who might switch loyalty in the future.

The businessman also admitted that he eventually left Peter Obi’s camp because he did not want to continue “recording losses” politically.
