Nigerian celebrity businessman and politician Pascal Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chief Priest, has joined growing public outrage over the alleged killing of a young man by police officers in Effurun, Ovwie Local Government Area of Delta State.

The socialite’s reaction followed a viral video shared by activist Harrison Gwamnishu on Tuesday, April 28.

The disturbing footage showed a suspect pleading for his life before an officer, later identified as ASP Nuhu Usman, allegedly shot him multiple times, resulting in his death.

Following widespread backlash online, the Delta State Police Command released a statement confirming the incident and announcing that the officer involved had been arrested. The command also assured the public that investigations were ongoing and justice would be served.

On Wednesday afternoon, Israel DMW, an aide to Afrobeats star Davido, also reshared the viral clip on Instagram, expressing sadness over the incident.

Reacting via his Instagram story, Cubana Chief Priest expressed anger over the killing, insisting the victim had done everything possible to avoid the tragedy.

“The guy did everything possible to stop him, It was not this young man’s time & This fool took the life. Omo na life for life oh. This is heart breaking 💔. He has to join the guy ASAP,” he wrote.

He further called for accountability beyond the officer who allegedly pulled the trigger, stating that others involved should also face consequences.

“The guy who gave him the bullet when the gun was not working & the guys that was hailing him udaegbe all of them should go down. They killed him comfortably and happily,” he added.
