Socialite Pascal Okechukwu, better known as Cubana Chief Priest, has disclosed why his public grudge with Burna Boy stems from alleged jealousy over his close relationship with Davido. In an interview on Channels Television’s, Rubbin Minds, Chief Priest explained that Burna Boy is jealous of his bond with Davido and wanted him to side with him instead. Chief Priest said he chose to work with Davido, which allegedly sparked Burna Boy’s bitterness against him. He added that Davido never discussed Burna Boy with him and is not the type to engage in gossip about his colleagues.

He believed that Burna Boy’s actions were driven by imagination and a desire to create drama.

He said: “My whole issue with Burna Boy started because he was jealous of my relationship with Davido,” he said.

“He wanted Chief Priest by his side, but I chose to work with Davido. Me and Davido have never discussed anything about Burna Boy,” he said on Channels Television’s Rubbin Minds which was aired on Sunday.

“Davido isn’t the kind of person who would use his time to discuss his colleagues. It’s always them imagining things and trying to drag us.”

The feud between Chief Priest and Burna Boy escalated after Burna Boy got singer Speed Darlington arrested for making allegations about his relationship with American music executive Diddy.
