Cubana Chief Priest Declares Intent to Contest 2027 Elections Under APC to Support Nnamdi Kanu
Cubana Chief Priest, also known as Pascal Okechukwu, has officially declared his intent to contest a seat in the Federal House of Representatives in the 2027 general elections. He revealed his decision to run on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in support of Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
Despite his past support for the Labour Party and Peter Obi during the 2023 elections, Chief Priest emphasized the need for young influential voices in the system to negotiate the interests of the South East region effectively. He highlighted his loyalty to the APC and his intention to work with Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State.
Chief Priest's move is seen as a strategic decision to leverage his social media influence and activism to advocate for Kanu's release and address regional concerns within the political landscape.
