As the furor grows over Nigerian celebrities showcasing fake luxury brands, socialite Cubana Chiefpriest (Pascal Okechukwu) and businessman Obi Cubana (Obinna Iyiegbu) have been confirmed to be owners of authentic designer pieces.
From a GistLover report, Instagram account @T20luxury, which is dedicated to exposing fake luxury items, recently tagged some top celebrities such as Regina Daniels, Kcee, and Iyabo Ojo for donning off-the-counter stylish imitation products.
Regina Daniels entered the limelight first because she was suspected of opening a counterfeit Rolex watch that cost $30,000, which she claimed it was worth $30,000.
She has since been under fire again for possessing fake Chanel handbags.
Similarly, artist Kcee was criticized for wearing a counterfeit designer denim jacket, with the authentic brand emphasizing the need for celebrities to set examples by wearing original luxury items.
Nollywood star Iyabo Ojo was also in the limelight when a foreign luxury boutique alleged that her Louis Vuitton monogram camera box bag was counterfeit.
To the contrary, Cubana Chiefpriest and Obi Cubana received a thumbs up from @T20luxury, confirming that the designer clothing they wore was 100% authentic.
The platform celebrated with them, calling them “No Fake Zones”.
Cubana Chiefpriest was pictured in:
A Hermès Herbag Zip Cabine bag that costs $6,000 (₦9.6 million)
An Audemars Piguet Royal Oak watch that costs $150,000 (₦240 million)
Loro Piana Summer Walk shoes, which cost $1,100 (₦1.8 million)
Obi Cubana was spotted in genuine Bottega Veneta loafers, which were confirmed to be authentic, although the price was not disclosed.
The post sparked mixed reactions online, with many praising Cubana Chiefpriest and Obi Cubana for their commitment to authenticity, while others questioned the credibility of @T20luxury’s assessments.
@obodo_happyside advised:
“If you’re a billionaire, please try and afford original items, even if it’s just a few. It matters.”
@aktok886 respected the pair:
“CP Chiefpriest is one of the few Igbo young billionaires who wear authentic designer clothes. No copies, no fakes. He and Obi Cubana shop at high-end department stores like Harrods and Selfridges.”
