Cubana Chief Priest sparks online frenzy with playful jab amid paternity scandal
Celebrity barman Pascal Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chief Priest, has once again stirred reactions on social media with a cheeky post seemingly aimed at his ongoing paternity drama with Kenyan woman, Hellen Ati.
In a recent Instagram post, the nightlife entrepreneur shared a light-hearted video from his vacation in France, captioning it with the now-viral phrase:
“PASKAL !!! You Will Suffer” — a line closely associated with Ati’s repeated online outbursts.
The post has triggered a wave of reactions from netizens, many of whom interpreted the caption as a subtle dig at Ati, who has accused Chief Priest of fathering her two-year-old son after a brief romantic encounter in April 2022.
Despite Ati’s repeated calls for a DNA test and numerous public call-outs, Chief Priest has reportedly not acknowledged her demands, opting instead to pursue legal action. He filed a defamation lawsuit against her in a Kenyan court, seeking an injunction to stop her from making further defamatory remarks. The lawsuit claims her accusations are baseless, malicious, and fueled by social media speculation rather than hard evidence.
Ati has continued to escalate the issue online, even dragging Chief Priest’s wife into the controversy and issuing emotional pleas and threats.
The Instagram video has since gone viral, with users reacting with a mix of amusement and concern:
-
@wf_lamar: “I read it in her voice.”
-
@dr_dalu: “Helen think say life na Nollywood.”
-
@donsurplusenterprise: “Na this kain suffer I want o.”

-
@bolaomoekiti: “Paskaluuu Ogechukwu come and take ya baby. Your baby never eat since one week, now you dey eat suya.”
While Chief Priest appears unbothered and playful online, the controversy continues to generate heated debate about celebrity responsibility, fatherhood, and the power of social media in public disputes.
