Chiefpriest said this while reacting to the conviction and sentencing of Nnamdi Kanu by an Abuja High Court on Thursday, November 21.
Singer Hakeem Fashola, popularly known as Portable, has fired back at socialite Okechukwu Pascal, also known as Cubana ChiefPriest, after the latter claimed on social media that President Tinubu would struggle to secure even 10,000 votes in the South East in 2027 if Nnamdi Kanu remains in detention.
Chiefpriest said this while reacting to the conviction and sentencing of Nnamdi Kanu by an Abuja High Court on Thursday, November 21.
In his post, Chiefpriest said the President should not be deceived that Kanu is the Supreme Leader of the South East and that any decision to have him incarcerated till 2027 will work against President Tinubu come 2027 as he will barely secure votes from Ndigbos.
Reacting to ChiefPriest’s claim. Portable in a video he shared dismissed the socialite’s claim.
He tackled him for not discussing about Nnamdi Kanu when he joined Davido to go see the President some months back. Portable said instead of discussing about Kanu, Chiefpriest seized the opportunity with the President to discuss about his own interests and how to secure contracts for himself.
On the claims that South Easterners will not vote for President Tinubu in 2027 if Kanu is not released, Portable said this is not true as his people will be given money to vote for President Tinubu during the election.
