Pascal Okechukwu, better known as Cubana Chief Priest, has denied claims of being related to Bethel Okechukwu, the phone repairer who gained attention after receiving a $30,000 gift from Afrobeats star Burna Boy.
In an Instagram post on Sunday, Cubana Chief Priest clarified that the man in the viral video, who was thought to be his brother, is not his sibling. Burna Boy had promised the $30,000 to Bethel, which led to speculation about his connection to Cubana.
In his statement, Cubana Chief Priest dismissed the rumors, referring to the viral video as a “skit” made by content creators. He further stated that he has only three biological siblings, all of whom are financially independent and do not rely on him.
This statement comes after a heated feud between Burna Boy and Cubana Chief Priest earlier in the week, which garnered significant attention online.
