Chiefpriest Faces Backlash for Supporting Tinubu Amid Kanu's Detention

Okechukwu Pascal, popularly known as Chiefpriest, revealed that he cannot assist in securing the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the incarcerated leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), despite his support for the re-election of Bola Tinubu, a prominent figure in the All Progressives Congress (APC). Chiefpriest's stance has drawn criticism and accusations of hypocrisy, especially from social media users like VeryDarkMan (VDM).
In a video shared online, Chiefpriest was seen meeting with Imo State Governor Hope Uzodinma as part of Tinubu's support group. Chiefpriest defended his position, emphasizing his loyalty to the APC and expressing confidence in Tinubu's re-election bid.
This has led to questions about Chiefpriest's motives and priorities, with critics questioning his commitment to advocating for Kanu's release while actively supporting the APC's political agenda.
