Nigerian comedian Klintoncod has ignited online discussion after calling out celebrity barman Cubana Chief Priest for sharing a video that flaunted his luxurious lifestyle amid the burial proceedings of late Nollywood star Alexx Ekubo.
Klintoncod’s criticism of Cubana Chief Priest
In a clip that went viral on X (formerly Twitter), Klintoncod voiced his disappointment, describing the display of a Rolls Royce, G‑Wagon, private jet and lavish food as insensitive while relatives, friends and colleagues were mourning the actor’s loss.
The comedian’s pointed quote
“This might be the most insensitive video I have ever made, but I have to say it. We just lost Alexx Ekubo, a talented actor, and people are mourning. The only video you could bring out is your Rolls Royce, G‑Wagon, private jet, food and lifestyle,” he declared.
Questions about timing and empathy
Klintoncod lamented that Cubana Chief Priest missed a chance to show empathy, instead choosing to highlight his opulent lifestyle. He stressed that there is a proper time for celebration and a distinct time for mourning, warning that funeral ceremonies should not become venues for chasing clout.
Concerns about the celebrity’s circle
The comedian also expressed unease over the public figures who reacted positively to the post, saying it prompted him to question the influences within Cubana Chief Priest’s social circle.
Mixed reactions online
Responses have been divided. Many social media users agreed with Klintoncod’s critique, while others defended the businessman, arguing that individuals process grief in their own ways.
