Burna Boy and Chief Priest Clash: Generosity Meets Controversy in Online Saga"

Burna Boy vs. Cubana Chief Priest Feud: Dollar Rain and Unexpected Beneficiaries

 

The ongoing feud between Grammy Award-winning artist Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, and nightlife entrepreneur Pascal Okechukwu, aka Cubana Chief Priest, has taken an intriguing turn. While their online spat continues to dominate social media, it has unexpectedly transformed the lives of some individuals, sparking discussions about charity and public disputes.

Dollar Windfall for a Phone Repairer

In an apparent bid to mock Chief Priest, Burna Boy made a surprising philanthropic gesture by gifting $30,000 to Bethel Okechukwu, a phone repairer from Alaba International Market, Lagos. Bethel had claimed to be a relative of Chief Priest in a viral video. Burna Boy amplified the video during the height of their feud, reposting it with an implied jab at Chief Priest for allegedly neglecting his “brother.”

True to his word, Burna Boy fulfilled his promise and transferred the substantial sum to Bethel. A video of Bethel expressing his gratitude quickly made rounds online, where he celebrated the life-changing support. “God is real, Odogwu #burnaboygram,” he said. “God has used you to pull me out of poverty. I will be forever grateful. Please, people, help me thank him for me.”

Reacting to Bethel’s gratitude, Burna Boy responded, stating that his only interest was in Bethel’s success. “Make good use of the money,” he urged.

Chief Priest Denies Relationship

Chief Priest, however, was swift to distance himself from Bethel. In a sharp retort on social media, he wrote, “Alleged brother! Skit makers f**kin oppressors. Dem don kneel am down, you go still bend am down because the pain must reach everybody. But my own be say no alert oh, no cash. I wan just dey sure say my village boy collect for real.”

He dismissed the entire narrative as a publicity stunt and challenged Burna Boy to show proof of the transaction. Chief Priest further suggested that if Burna Boy were truly generous, he should have offered Bethel a music feature instead.

Burna Boy’s Promise to Hellen

In another twist, Burna Boy extended his philanthropy to Hellen, a Kenyan woman who claims to have had a child with Chief Priest. For years, Hellen has maintained that Chief Priest fathered her son after a brief encounter in Lagos, though Chief Priest has consistently denied the allegation.

In a recent interview, Hellen revealed that she was living in poverty and struggling to care for her child. Reacting to her plight, Burna Boy vowed to change her life. He promised to relocate her to Nigeria, secure a job for her, enroll her son in school, and train the boy in his football academy. “By the grace of God, @burnaboyfootballacademy will build him into a football star,” Burna wrote on social media.

Although no meeting between Hellen and Burna Boy has occurred yet, the public awaits the singer’s next move as he seems poised to fulfill his promise.

Public Reactions and Implications

The drama has drawn mixed reactions from fans and observers. Some praised Burna Boy for his acts of generosity, while others criticized him for using charity as a tool in a personal feud. Chief Priest’s staunch denials and his criticism of Burna Boy’s motives have further fueled the debate.

Meanwhile, beneficiaries like Bethel and potentially Hellen find themselves as unexpected recipients of Burna Boy’s largesse, raising questions about the intersection of philanthropy and public disputes.

As the feud unfolds, one thing remains clear: the financial windfall from this spat has had real-life impacts beyond the original conflict, changing lives in unexpected ways.

Drama in the Creeks: Police Rescue Ex-AIG’s Wife in Daring Shootout with Kidnappers

 

In a high-stakes operation straight out of a blockbuster movie, the Nigeria Police Force on Thursday rescued the abducted wife of retired Assistant Inspector General of Police, Hakeem Odumosu, after seven harrowing days in captivity.

 

Mrs. Odumosu, kidnapped from her residence in the Arepo area of Ogun State last Thursday, was dramatically freed following an intelligence-driven raid by the anti-kidnapping unit of the Ogun State Command.

Last Thursday night, around 10 PM, four masked men stormed Arepo, targeting Mrs. Odumosu as she pulled into her residence in a Lexus SUV. The attackers dragged her from her vehicle, bundled her into their car, and sped off into the night, leaving a wave of shock and fear in their wake.

The kidnappers reportedly demanded a ransom of N10 million, sparking intense efforts by security operatives to track them down.

The breakthrough came early Thursday morning when intelligence gathered by the police led them to the kidnappers’ hideout deep within the swampy creeks of Ikorodu in Lagos State.

According to the Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the operatives encountered the armed criminals during the raid at approximately 6:45 AM. A fierce gun battle erupted as the kidnappers opened fire in a desperate bid to escape.

“The gallant officers overpowered the gang,” Adejobi said. “Two of the kidnappers were neutralised during the exchange of gunfire, while four others fled, abandoning their weapons and ransom money. Mrs. Odumosu was rescued unharmed within the creeks.”

The police recovered an arsenal of deadly weapons, including four AK-47 rifles, three locally made single-barrelled guns, and ammunition of various calibres. Also retrieved was the N10 million ransom the kidnappers had demanded.

Mrs. Odumosu has since been reunited with her family after undergoing medical evaluation. The Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, lauded the Ogun State Commissioner of Police, Lanre Ogunlowo, and his operatives for their bravery and efficiency.

“This operation is a testament to the unwavering commitment of the police to protect lives and ensure justice,” Adejobi added.

The operation sends a clear message to criminal elements that the Nigeria Police Force will not relent in its fight against crime. As investigations continue to track the fleeing suspects, Nigerians are reminded of the risks law enforcement officers take daily to ensure the safety of citizens.

The dramatic rescue of Mrs. Odumosu underscores the importance of intelligence-led policing and the resilience of security operatives in the face of brazen criminality.
