Popular Nigerian businessman and nightlife entrepreneur, Obi Cubana, has dismissed widespread reports alleging that he has withdrawn from the City Boy Movement, a youth-focused political advocacy platform linked to the support structure of President Bola Tinubu.
The clarification comes amid growing online speculation suggesting that the socialite had distanced himself from the group after reportedly deleting related posts from his social media accounts.
Obi Cubana Denies Viral News of Quitting City Boy Movement
The denial by Obi Cubana emerged after social media users claimed that the businessman had removed all references to the City Boy Movement from his Instagram page, sparking debate about his political alignment.
However, Obi Cubana has now rejected the claims, insisting that he remains committed to the movement and its objectives.
In response to the rumours, he reaffirmed his loyalty by stating that he is a “City Boy for life,” dismissing suggestions of any fallout or withdrawal from the group.
Clarification on Social Media Post Deletions
The controversy began after screenshots circulated online showing that posts linked to the City Boy Movement were no longer visible on his Instagram page.
This development fueled speculation that the businessman had stepped back from his role as South-East Coordinator of the group.
Despite the speculation, no official statement initially confirmed any resignation or disengagement, leading to further confusion across social platforms.
Background of Obi Cubana’s Role In The Movement
Obi Cubana was previously associated with the City Boy Movement as the South-East Regional Coordinator, a position that placed him at the forefront of youth mobilisation efforts in the region.
The movement itself is described as a civic and political engagement platform focused on youth empowerment, grassroots mobilisation, and support for the Renewed Hope Agenda of the current administration.
His involvement had drawn significant attention due to his influence in business, entertainment, and social circles.
Reactions and Public Debate
The denial has continued to generate reactions online, with supporters and critics offering differing interpretations of the situation.
While some observers view the clarification as a reaffirmation of his political stance, others believe the controversy highlights the sensitivity surrounding public figures and political affiliations in Nigeria.
The debate also reflects broader public interest in the activities of influential entrepreneurs who engage in political advocacy or alignment.
Movement Reaffirms Obi Cubana’s Position
Seyi Tinubu and leaders within the City Boy Movement have also maintained that Obi Cubana remains part of the organisation, describing him as an important figure in its regional structure.
They dismissed claims of internal disagreement, insisting that the businessman continues to support the group’s activities and objectives.
According to the movement, earlier rumours about his resignation were also previously debunked as misinformation.
Conclusion
The denial puts to rest recent speculation about his alleged exit from the political advocacy group.
With his latest clarification, Obi Cubana has reaffirmed his continued association with the City Boy Movement, while urging the public to disregard unverified claims circulating on social media.
