- Comedian Klintoncod has criticised Cubana Chief Priest over a video allegedly showcasing luxury cars, a private jet, and an extravagant lifestyle during Alexx Ekubo’s burial activities.
- While some social media users agreed that the post was poorly timed, others defended Cubana Chief Priest, arguing that everyone mourns and celebrates life differently.
Nigerian comedian Klintoncod has stirred debate on social media after calling out nightlife entrepreneur Cubana Chief Priest over a video shared during the burial activities of late Nollywood actor Alexx Ekubo.
In a viral video posted on X, Klintoncod expressed disappointment over what he described as an insensitive display of luxury at a time when family, friends, and colleagues were mourning the late actor.
According to the comedian, the businessman missed an opportunity to show empathy and instead focused on showcasing his wealth and extravagant lifestyle.
“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.”
Klintoncod further questioned why none of Cubana Chief Priest’s associates advised him against sharing such content during a solemn occasion.
The comedian argued that there is a time for celebration and a time for mourning, stressing that funeral ceremonies should not be transformed into opportunities for clout chasing or social media validation.
He also expressed concern over the public figures who reacted positively to the post, saying it made him reflect on the type of people surrounding the celebrity businessman.
The comments have since generated mixed reactions online, with some social media users agreeing that the timing of the video was inappropriate, while others defended Cubana Chief Priest, insisting that people process grief differently and should not be judged for how they choose to honour a loved one.
