Nigerian socialite and bar owner Cubana Chief Priest took to Instagram to celebrate his long-time friend and mentor, Obi Cubana, as he marked his golden jubilee. Sharing nostalgic photos of their moments together, Chief Priest called Obi the man who discovered him and believed in him first.
Happy 50th Birthday to the man who discovered me and super believed in me first, @obi_cubana. God bless you so much; you’re greater than who people think you are. Wishing you good health and more money, sir,” he wrote.
This heartfelt tribute comes as a testament to the bond between the two celebrities, despite their tumultuous history. Over the years, Obi Cubana and Cubana Chief Priest have faced public speculation about their relationship. Their fallout in 2021, followed by reconciliation, highlighted their enduring friendship.
In 2022, Chief Priest silenced rumors of discord when he failed to promote Obi Cubana’s Odogwu Bitters. Sharing a video of them partying together, he reaffirmed their bond, describing Obi as his “overall boss.”
Chief Priest has consistently stood by Obi during tough times, including his 2021 arrest for alleged money laundering. Expressing solidarity, he stated, “What doesn’t kill us makes us stronger,” while highlighting the resilience of the Igbo people.
A month ago, Obi Cubana returned the favor, praising Chief Priest for gifting his childhood friend 47 cows for a family burial. Obi commended him for continuously setting and breaking records, underscoring the mutual respect they share.
Marking the 50th celebration, Chief Priest also reflected on Obi Cubana’s impeccable style and influence, declaring,
In my next life, I would still want to learn from you. The composure, the style, the coordination, the doings—there’s no party like Obi’s party!”
