Cubana Chiefpriest Denied Backstage Access at Concert

On September 4, 2026, during the Afro Plus Festival held at Northwest Stadium in Maryland, Cubana Chiefpriest was denied entry to the backstage area while escorting Chioma, the wife of Nigerian artist Davido. A video circulating on social media shows Chiefpriest walking hand-in-hand with Chioma towards the backstage entrance.

Upon reaching the restricted area, security personnel allowed Chioma to pass but stopped Chiefpriest from proceeding further. The footage concludes with Chiefpriest remaining at the barrier, watching Chioma enter backstage without him.

This moment quickly became a topic of discussion online, with viewers divided in their interpretations; some found it humorous, while others suggested that Chiefpriest was merely escorting Chioma to the entry point before handing her over to backstage staff, implying that no real embarrassment occurred.
