Nigerian socialite and businessman, Obi Iyiegbu, popularly known as Obi Cubana, has revealed that some people alleged he had used his wife for money ritual when she developed a strange illness.
The socialite added that his wife fell sick after the February 14 Valentine’s Day, adding that she assured him she’d give birth to their baby and get back on her feet.
Cubana, while speaking during an interview with Chude Jideonwo, said, “So, my wife, after she gave birth on Valentine’s Day, developed a strange illness.
“Someone called me and said, ‘See what they are hearing—that I went to use my wife for juju,’ and it was my friend. So, the person taking care of the brain is not the same person taking care of the… so they were just different people.
“A professor said, ‘Obi, your wife will not die, but I’m sorry, she will not be able to walk again and give birth again.’ Tears! My wife held me; she said, ‘Don’t worry, don’t mind them, let’s go.’ That night, I cried throughout the night, and she said, ‘Obi, I will walk on my feet again, and I will train this baby.’”
He also talked about the reason behind the lavish burial ceremony he organised for his late mother in 2021, saying his family has a history of not living beyond the age of 80, with his father, grandfather, and uncle all passing away before reaching 80.
“In my family, I am saying it for the first time: nobody has lived up to 80. My father died at 66, my father’s brother died at 75, my grandfather died at 78, and I told my mum, ‘You will break this.”
“I told her to break it if it’s a generational curse or something. I promised her that for the burial I would throw for her, nobody would break, and we started saving up for that.”
His mother died at the age of 78.
