Seyi Tinubu, the Grand Patron of the City Boy Movement, has urged a celebrity businessman, Pascal Okechukwu, to remain hopeful following his inability to secure the All Progressives Congress ticket for the Orsu/Orlu/Oru East Federal Constituency seat in Imo State. The ruling party's primary election was conducted on Saturday as part of preparations ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chief Priest, serves as the Imo State coordinator of the City Boy Movement. He had contested for the House of Representatives ticket under the platform of the ruling party after purchasing the expression of interest and nomination forms. The businessman previously stated that his legislative ambition was driven by youth empowerment, grassroots development, and the need to encourage greater political participation among young people in the constituency.
However, he could not secure the ticket of the party at the end of the exercise. Reacting to the development on Sunday via his Instagram story, Tinubu encouraged Okechukwu to stay positive, noting that setbacks could open doors to bigger victories.
Tinubu wrote, “Bro, sometimes by losing a battle, you find a new way to win the war. Keep your head up @cubana_chiefpriest. We know what you are capable of achieving,”
