Nigerian socialite Pascal Okechukwu, widely known as Cubana Chief Priest, revealed that highlife artist Flavour chose to hold his father’s burial in Enugu instead of their native Anambra due to ongoing security concerns.
Chief Priest, who attended the solemn event on Saturday, addressed the region’s security challenges in a heartfelt Instagram post.
Expressing his dismay over the instability plaguing the southeastern region, he called on all SouthEasterners to unite against the escalating threat that is disrupting their communities.
Fondly referred to as the star barman, Cubana Chief Priest emphasized that the South East should not be further harmed in reaction to marginalization.
He firmly stated that succumbing to such destructive behaviors only benefits those aiming to destabilize the region.
In his words:
He wrote:
“This amazing funeral was supposed to be happening in Umunze Anambra State but here we are in Enugu managing it. Umunne, we need to come together and fix this, it’s no longer interesting. We cannot destroy our own because we are being marginalised.
“We must uphold our glory by going back to our peaceful nature. We can only fight back if home is in order for proper planning. If this continues that means they have succeeded in disorganising us.
