Celebrity barman and socialite, Pascal Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chief Priest, has declared his intention to contest for a seat in the House of Representatives ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Okechukwu announced in a video posted on his Instagram page on Tuesday, where he said he is seeking to represent Orsu/Orlu/Oru East Federal Constituency in Imo State.
Accompanying the video, he wrote, “Stopped by at our great party state secretariat to congratulate & encourage our state working committee on their emergence and above all, I made known to them my humble aspirations to represent my people, the good people of Orsu/Orlu & Oru East Federal Constituency at the Federal House of Reps. Na God get power, let the will of God be done.”
In the video, Okechukwu said he visited the All Progressives Congress state secretariat to appreciate party leaders and formally notify them of his political ambition.
“I’ll be running for the office of the Federal House of Representatives. So, all I’m asking is for your blessings,” he said.
He also called for unity among party members, urging them to work together as “brothers, sisters, and party people” in pursuit of shared political objectives.
Okechukwu’s declaration comes as he continues to play a role in the City Boy Movement, a political support group aligned with President Bola Tinubu’s re-election bid and the Renewed Hope Agenda ahead of the 2027 elections, where he serves as the Imo State Director.
