Popular Nigerian socialite and nightlife entrepreneur Cubana Chief Priest has opened up further following his defeat in the APC primary election for the Orsu/Orlu/Oru East Federal Constituency seat in Imo State ahead of the 2027 general elections.…....
Recall that reports emerged on Saturday, May 16, 2026, confirming that the celebrity businessman failed to secure the party’s House of Representatives ticket.
In a new video circulating online, Cubana Chief Priest appeared in a Twitch live session with popular Nigerian streamer Peller, where he spoke candidly about his experience during the election process.
According to him, several individuals allegedly misled him with assurances that he would emerge victorious in the primary election, prompting him to spend huge sums of money in the process.
The businessman claimed he spent as much as N50 million and N20 million in different places based on promises made to him, only to eventually lose the election.
Reflecting on the experience, Cubana Chief Priest admitted that there was little he could do to recover the money since there were no receipts or formal records of the transactions.
Despite the setback, he maintained that he had learnt important lessons about politics and vowed not to give up on his political ambitions.
He disclosed that he intends to contest again in future elections, stressing that persistence is key in politics.
Drawing comparisons with global political figures, he referenced former US President Barack Obama and current US President Donald Trump, noting that both experienced political challenges before achieving success.
Cubana Chief Priest also encouraged young Nigerians to become actively involved in politics, stating that greater youth participation would contribute positively to the country’s development.
