Some people advised women that this is something they should emulate while others do not believe his grass to grace story.

Late last year, Obi Cubana’s mother kicked the bucket, and he buried his late mother in style. His mom’s burial was the talk of the town because not only were a lot of celebrities present, his friends, family and he himself “made it rain” in naira and dollar notes.

They further damaged his reputation when someone in his club was electrocuted, which occurred shortly afterwards.

There is rarely any star that does not have some sort of controversy surrounding them, and Obi Cubana has certainly had his fair share of scandals.
