Celebrity barman Pascal Chibuike Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chief Priest, has bragged online following his release from the EFCC’s custody today.
Earlier today, Chief Priest was arraigned by the EFCC over the charge of Naira mutilation, amongst others.
Reports from Channels Television stated that the EFCC filed a three-count charge against the businessman for spraying and tampering with the naira at a social event, contrary to the provisions of the Central Bank Act of 2007.
Pascal arrived before Justice Kehinde Ogundare of the Federal High Court, Lagos, on Wednesday morning, April 17th, 2024, and pleaded not guilty to the charges of naira abuse.
While being arraigned in court this morning, his counsel, Chukwusolo Onukwi, opposed the charges filed against him by the EFCC. He had also filed a bail application, which was granted by the judge.
He was granted bail with a fine of ten million naira.
Sharing a photo of himself after release, Cubana Chief Priest appreciated those who have been checking on him since the time he was arrested, saying their messages and love made him humble.
He also bragged about being famous with the claim that money is water.
