Popular socialite Pascal Okechukwu, widely known as Cubana Chiefpriest, has dismissed reports claiming he participated and lost in the All Progressives Congress (APC) primary election held in Imo State on Saturday, May 16.
Social media platforms were flooded with claims that the celebrity bartender suffered a defeat in his bid to secure the APC ticket for the Ideato North and South Federal Constituency ahead of the 2027 general elections. The online speculation triggered a wave of mockery in the comment sections of his social media pages.
Reacting to the development in an Instagram post shared this afternoon, ChiefPriest clarified that he boycotted the primaries after learning yesterday morning that his local government area was excluded from fielding a candidate for the election. He stated that he immediately left Imo State for Lagos, challenging anyone to prove they saw him at the venue.
The primary election concluded with the incumbent lawmaker emerging victorious to retain the party’s ticket.
