Celebrity barman, Pascal Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chief Priest, has stirred social media reactions after posting a sarcastic video on Instagram amid his ongoing paternity dispute with Kenyan woman, Hellen Ati.
Currently vacationing in France, Chief Priest shared a playful video with the caption, “PASKAL!!! You Will Suffer”—a phrase widely recognized as part of Ati’s repeated online call-outs in her battle to establish paternity for her two-year-old son.
The post, seen as a mockery of the ongoing controversy, comes while Chief Priest faces public pressure to take a DNA test. Hellen Ati alleges that he fathered her child after a brief romantic encounter in April 2022, a claim the nightlife mogul has consistently denied.
Despite Ati’s repeated social media appeals and threats—some of which involve dragging his wife into the saga—Cubana Chief Priest has remained silent on the DNA request but has taken legal action. He recently filed a defamation lawsuit in a Kenyan court, seeking to restrain Ati from making further “malicious and unfounded” statements against him.
Online reactions to his video have been swift and mixed, with many finding humor in the post, while others criticized his perceived insensitivity:
- @wf_lamar: “I read it in her voice.”
- @dr_dalu: “Helen think say life na Nollywood.”
- @donsurplusenterprise: “Na this kain suffer I want o.”
- @ejuraobike: “Kai, this little boy did not beg to come to this world. Hmmmm.”
- @Vivianvictor296: “Pascal you must do DNA.”
- @ifypeterofficial: “Paskal you be agbaya.”
Another user, @bolaomoekiti, lamented, “Paskaluuu, Ogechukwu come and take your baby. Your baby never eat since one week now, you dey eat suya.”
While Chief Priest appears unfazed online, the legal battle continues to unfold in Kenyan court, with the public closely watching for updates on whether he will eventually agree to a DNA test.
