Pascal Okechukwu, also known as Cubana Chief Priest, a businessman and socialite, has appeared at the Federal High Court in Lagos for his arraignment on charges of allegedly abusing the Nigerian currency.
Cubana Chief Priest, already seated in the dock, is facing Justice Kehinde Ogundare on three counts related to the abuse of the naira, specifically for reportedly spraying and mishandling the nation’s currency at a social gathering, contravening the provisions of the Central Bank Act of 2007.
The alleged incident occurred on February 13, 2024, at Eko Hotel, where Cubana Chief Priest was said to have sprayed Naira notes while dancing at the event.
According to reports, Cubana Chief Priest engaged in these actions over a period of two hours, tampering with N500 notes issued by the Central Bank of Nigeria.
