“Don’t be intimidated by anything. We are not giving because we have, but we are giving because God has enabled us to do so,” the popular businessman stated.
Obi Cubana became the talk of the town in July 2021 when he organised a lavish funeral for his mother, Ezinne Iyiegbu, in Oba in the Idemili South Local Government Area of Anambra State.
The funeral attracted several entertainers and renowned politicians from across the country including embattled Nigerian super cop, Abba Kyari.
Other entertainers that graced the event included Davido, D’banj, Kcee, Poco Lee, Ubi Franklin, amongst others.
The highlight of the event was the ostentatious display of wealth as evidenced by the donation of about 400 cows to Obi Cubana and the spraying of Naira notes.
