A heated online feud between Grammy-winning artist Burna Boy and social media influencer Pascal Okechukwu (Cubana Chief Priest), has sparked widespread criticism from fans and netizens, who have called for an end to the public dispute.
The conflict reportedly began when Burna Boy shared an Instagram post likening Cubana Chief Priest to American rapper Rick Ross, a comment perceived as a slight.
The situation escalated when Burna Boy used the slang “Azaman” to insinuate ties to fraudulent activities, referencing Cubana Chief Priest’s associate who was recently arrested in the United States.
In response, Cubana Chief Priest accused Burna Boy of jealousy, alleging that his Grammy success was linked to a relationship with music mogul Diddy.
He further claimed that Burna Boy had financial struggles, recounting an incident in 2018 when he paid the singer a hefty sum to perform at his birthday party.
As tensions grew, Burna Boy posted a video featuring a man claiming to be Cubana Chief Priest’s brother, offering $30,000 for information on his whereabouts.
The move intensified the drama, drawing mixed reactions online.
While some commentators criticized both celebrities for engaging in a public spectacle, others defended their preferred figures.
The feud has continued to dominate social media discussions, with many hoping for a resolution.
