Nigerian socialite Pascal Okechukwu, aka Cubana Chief Priest, has addressed the recent social media feud with Grammy-winning singer, Burna Boy.
TheNewsGuru recalls that Burna Boy had slammed the socialite, describing him as a “low-budget Rick Ross”. Responding, Cubana claimed that Burna Boy’s Grammy win was linked to his relationship with embattled rapper Diddy.
However, during a recent interview on Channels TV, the celebrity barman attributed the rift between him and Burna Boy to jealousy.
According to Cubana, Burna Boy is envious of his close relationship with Davido, another prominent artiste, which is the reason for the verbal attack. He argued that Burna Boy wishes to have him back in his circle.
He said, “I was on my own when he hit me hard. We used to be close friends until after Atlantic Records. Until he became more bigger and so the reach was no longer there. I withdrew and I kept doing my thing. I have musicians around me. That is my business. I am a show promoter.
“My relationship with David is what a lot of people are not happy with. The way I promote David. This is what every artiste wants for themselves. That is the reason. I feel he is jealous. Because he does not have anyone by his side that has my kind of energy. I feel he wants me by his side but I am long gone.
“Because David has been there for me. David opened my club in Owerri. David opened my club in Asaba. David my hotel in Owerri. He opened my house. This December, David was in Asaba for me. We are deep.
“What he posted was too bad. I am a businessman. And people watched me grow year by year. So, you are not going to come and throw jabs at my business or personality. I know because he knew we were on the same status that is why he is fighting me because I did nothing to him. Me and David have never discussed anything about you because all of us used to be friends. I value your success. I am proud of him.”
