Cubana Chief Priest already in EFCC Custody For Naira Mutilation

From Glamorous to Grim: Cubana Chief Priest Detained by EFCC After Bobrisky’s Sentencing

ABUJA, Nigeria – April 16, 2024 – Following the recent sentencing of social media personality Bobrisky to 6 months in prison by the EFCC (Economic and Financial Crimes Commission) for alleged financial crimes, another high-profile figure has found himself in hot water. Cubana Chief Priest, a flamboyant socialite and club owner, is reportedly in EFCC custody facing charges of naira mutilation.

The EFCC has yet to officially comment on Cubana Chief Priest’s detainment, but sources close to the matter claim he will be arraigned for violating Nigerian law, which prohibits the mishandling of the country’s currency. Naira mutilation, including spraying, stamping, or writing on banknotes, is a punishable offense.

This development comes as a shock to many Nigerians who follow Cubana Chief Priest’s lavish lifestyle, often documented on social media. His displays of wealth frequently involve large amounts of cash, which some speculate might have attracted the EFCC’s attention.

The swift action against both Bobrisky and Cubana Chief Priest underscores the EFCC’s intensified efforts to curb financial crimes and enforce financial regulations. It remains to be seen how Cubana Chief Priest’s case will unfold, but it undoubtedly serves as a cautionary tale for those who flaunt wealth obtained through questionable means.
