EFCC Arrests Socialite Cubana Chief Priest by bestofnollywood(op): 6:19am On Apr 03, 2022

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has arrested Nigerian socialite Cubana Chief Priest on charges bordering on money laundering and tax fraud, officials familiar with the matter said.

Pascal Okechukwu, his real name, was arrested at the Lagos airport on Thursday, but anti-graft officials hushed the development amidst pressure from his associates and family, who said the matter could complicate conditions for others likely connected to the alleged racket.

Mr Okechukwu’s arrest has made it impossible for him to return birthday greetings from his nearly four million Instagram followers, this newspaper understands, with only his wife being permitted to see him in custody.

It was not immediately clear when he would be granted bail or the level of information officials had been able to squeeze from him as of Saturday night.

“The matter is still under investigation,” a source said anonymously.

Cubana Chief Priest has gained nationwide acclaim as an ambassador for many national brands, including Bullet.

His arrest came weeks after another socialite Obi Cubana was arrested by the anti-narcotics agency NDLEA.

Arrested on mere suspicion while world renowned and proven big thief like Tinubu is walking free and even insulting our sensibilities by declaring for presidency. Nigeria is a banana republic

All I can say is, if found guilty he should be made to face the consequences and if exonerated, he should be compensated for public victimization. undecided undecided

His boss is the Supreme Court Governor so it's possible there are loads of collabo between them as looting partners. Well, any chief priest that can be arrested at will must be operating in a fake shrine.

Out there in the streets, it is said that if EFCC has never arrested nor invited you for questioning, then nobody knows you have money yet. Unless you are above 50 years. Unfortunately, the agency expects you to suffer till you are 50 years before you blow.

If you are below that age, you will have to explain and explain, till you get tired of the money as well. Old frustrated people always have a way of meting out their frustrations on the young and rich. Know this and know peace ✌️

Money laundering and tax evasion? This clearly shows the EFCC have no real case against this man .

Is it the duty of EFCC to hold people for Tax evasion? This is the job of FIRS and it has processes ? Has the FIRS invited him to come and explain loopholes in his tax burden ? Abeg this is abuse of power which means the EFCC can just pick up anyone they don't like and accuse of them of tax fraud
