Cubana Chief Priest, one of the highlights of the lavish traditional wedding at Eko Hotel and Suites in Lagos last year, disclosed why he would be absent on his Instagram page on Saturday.
Visa
Sharing a throwback video from the couple’s 2024 marriage, he revealed on his Instagram page that long-standing US visa issues prevented him from travelling for the wedding.
He admitted to having mixed emotions, expressing joy for the newlyweds while lamenting that he would miss the celebration.
“I woke up this morning with mixed feelings. I’m happy, but I’m still sad. Sometimes God makes you understand that you are powerless, regardless of all you may think you have. I appreciate the bashing because it has given me multiple reasons and proves I should apply again.
“US Mission Nigeria, do it for me this time, you can see how disappointed and hurt the world is. To see me absent at my best friend’s wedding, you need to give me access to get my fat ass into America,” the “More Money” crooner wrote.
In attendance in soul
The businessman said a delay was never a denial and expressed hope for the future.
Cubana Chief Priest added that although he was not physically present, he was with the couple in spirit.
He noted, “I wish my best friend, Davido and his beautiful wife, Chioma, a fantastic wedding. The most significant part of me, which is my family, my lovely, elegant, expensive, eloquent and sophisticated wife, is there to share in this luxurious, blissful experience.
“So I’m there in body and spirit. US Mission Nigeria, I’m in again next week. Please give me access to the greatest country in the world. This pain is paining.”
A review of the businessman’s Instagram page showed that after announcing he was denied a visa, he continued to share videos and photos from the wedding.
