Pascal Okechukwu, famously known as Cubana Chief Priest, has revealed why he was unable to attend the white wedding of Davido and Chioma in Miami, Florida.

The popular celebrity barman explained that ongoing visa issues with the United States prevented him from being there physically.

In a heartfelt post on Instagram this past Saturday, Cubana Chief Priest expressed his mixed emotions about missing the ceremony. While he celebrated the happiness of the couple, he also shared his deep sadness at not being present.

He wrote, “Woke up this morning with mixed feelings. I’m happy, and I’m still sad at the same time. Sometimes, God has a way of making you understand that you are powerless regardless of all you may think you have.”

Addressing those who questioned his absence, he said, “I appreciate the bashing because that has given me multiple reasons and proofs to apply again.”

He made a direct appeal to the U.S. Embassy in Nigeria: “#usinnigeria do it for me this time. You can clearly see how disappointed and hurt the world is to see me absent at my best friend’s wedding. You need to give me access to get my fat ass into America. Well, delay is never denial — CP is still hopeful.”

Although he couldn’t attend the wedding, he revealed that his wife and family represented him at the event. “The largest part of me, which is my family, my beautiful, elegant, expensive, eloquent and sophisticated wife #_deangels, is there to share in this luxury blissful experience. So I’m there in body and spirit,” he shared.

He also extended his best wishes to the newly married couple: “I’m wishing my best friend #davido and his beautiful wife #thechefchi an amazing wedlock.”

Cubana Chief Priest said he plans to reapply for his US visa soon and urged the embassy once again: “#usinnigeria I’m in again next week. Please give me access to the greatest country in the world. This pain is really paining.”

Earlier this year, during an appearance on Channels TV’s Rubbin’ Minds, he explained how a mistake made during his first visa application years ago has caused ongoing problems with US immigration, leading to repeated refusals.

“I have been denied access to America. If I had a visa to enter Yankee today, it would be a dream come true,” he said.

“Somebody filled out my form when I was much younger and was trying to get into America. Some mistakes were coming up during interviews. And I think they have it on their system. Anytime I came, it kept popping up.”

He added, “David tells me about America and the lifestyle. It is something I want to experience. I hope very soon I am going to get access to get into Yankee.”
