Pascal Okechukwu, better known as Cubana Chief Priest, has suffered a setback in his push into politics after losing the APC primary for the House of Representatives seat in Orsu/Orlu/Oru East Federal Constituency,
Imo State, ahead of the 2027 election. Reports said the ticket went to incumbent lawmaker Omeogo Canice Moore Nwachukwu.
The celebrity businessman, who had recently bought the party’s nomination and expression of interest forms, had framed his bid around youth empowerment and grassroots development.
He also linked his move to the South-East City Boy Movement. In one of his earlier posts, he wrote, “Na God get power; let the will of God be done,” and described the mission as “Empowering the youth.”
