The long-running rivalry between popular socialite and celebrity barman, Pascal Okechukwu, better known as Cubana Chiefpriest, and social media commentator Isaac Fayose (younger brother of former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose) has entered a fresh and explosive chapter.
The latest episode kicked off after Isaac Fayose dropped a viral video where he dragged some prominent Igbo figures, accusing them of abandoning the fight for the release of detained Biafran activist Nnamdi Kanu while allegedly aligning with the current administration for personal benefits. Fayose, who claimed partial Igbo heritage through his wife, didn’t hold back. He described Igbos as “easy to buy” with money and power, adding, “Thank God say I no be Igbo by tribe,” and pointed fingers at figures like Cubana for supposedly prioritising “Renewed Hope” over communal struggles.
Not one to swallow insults, Cubana Chiefpriest quickly took to Instagram with a fiery response that has since set social media on fire. In a no-holds-barred post, the socialite labelled Fayose a “very useless and jealous guy” and delivered a savage boast: “Your entire net worth is in my wardrobe as shoes, clothes, bags, watches, and accessories.“
Chiefpriest defended his alignment with the government, arguing it was a strategic move to influence change from within rather than shouting from the sidelines. He boasted about employing over 1,000 people and challenged Fayose to a public business debate, flaunting his luxurious lifestyle in photos that reportedly show rooms and items worth millions of pounds.
As earlier reported by NaijaChoice News, this is not the first time these two heavyweights have thrown shades at each other. Back in May 2025, Isaac Fayose had mercilessly dragged Cubana for kneeling before Vice President Kashim Shettima during a public event, describing it as “kneeling like a puppy.” Cubana fired back then, hinting at political ambitions and throwing a subtle jab: “Na the thing wey your brother chop, na him I dey pursue.”
The current beef has only gotten hotter. Fayose refused to back down and dropped another video clapping back hard. He dismissed Cubana as a “little boy,” declaring, “Me and you are not on the same level… you can’t compare day and night.” He further questioned the source of Chiefpriest’s wealth, saying in a normal country, “you would be in jail by now” and even comparing him unfavourably to Hushpuppi, who is currently serving time in the US.
Fayose added more fuel: “If you like, as you don big, fat, robust make you burst na your problem be that.“
Social media has been buzzing non-stop with mixed reactions. Many netizens are picking sides, with some supporting Fayose’s stance on ethnic loyalty and others hailing Cubana’s confidence and success. One X user captured the mood perfectly: “Isaac Fayose blasts Cubana Chief Priest: ‘Me and you are not on the same level… you can’t compare day and night. You’re a little boy!‘”
The ongoing exchange has Nigerians glued to their phones, with many calling it pure entertainment. While some urge the duo to settle the matter privately, others are enjoying the drama, with comments like “Power pass power” and debates about wealth, politics, and tribal loyalty flooding timelines.
As the beef continues to trend, one thing is clear — Cubana Chiefpriest and Isaac Fayose know how to keep Nigerians entertained. Will this end in reconciliation or escalate further? Only time will tell.
