“If Nigeria is working, why is your wife hustling for papers in the UK?” – UK-based woman calls out Obi Cubana
A UK-based Nigerian woman has publicly called out businessman Obi Cubana over his support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the ruling APC government.
The video, shared by X (formerly Twitter) user @General_Somto, has gone viral, sparking reactions from Nigerians both at home and in the diaspora.
Allegations About Family’s Stay in the UK
In the clip, the woman alleged that Obi Cubana’s wife is currently in the United Kingdom on a student visa, accompanied by their children.
She claimed that the move is not for educational purposes, suggesting instead that it is primarily to secure residency papers and better opportunities abroad.
Questioning Public Endorsement
The woman questioned why Cubana would send his wife and children abroad if Nigeria is genuinely progressing under the current administration, as he has publicly claimed.
In her words: “Obi Cubana is busy supporting Tinubu and APC, meanwhile his wife is on a student visa here in the UK with her children. She is not even here for studies but to get papers. If Nigeria is working under Tinubu like Obi Cubana claims, why is his wife in another man’s country that is working, hustling for papers and his children schooling in the UK? What happened to the schools in Nigeria under APC?”
Backlash Against Public Figures
Her remarks come amid ongoing backlash and criticism directed at public figures who openly align themselves with the ruling political leaders, especially ahead of the 2027 elections.
