Nigerian singer Skales has sparked widespread conversation online after strongly calling out socialite Cubana Chief Priest over his controversial reaction to the recent violence in Jos.
The drama began after Cubana Chief Priest shared a post expressing condolences over the tragic k!llings in Jos, while also suggesting that the attack may have been politically motivated to embarrass President Bola Tinubu on his birthday.
While his post included prayers for the victims and a call for improved security, it quickly triggered backlash from many Nigerians who felt the focus of his message was misplaced.
Reacting sharply, Skales described the statement as insensitive and “delusional,” questioning how anyone could prioritize political interpretations over the loss of human lives.
In a heated response, he expressed disbelief that such comments were made at a time of mourning, emphasizing that the victims were real people and the situation required empathy, not political framing.
Skales further questioned the moral judgment behind the post, asking how someone with a family could overlook the tragedy and focus instead on perceived political embarrassment.
His comments quickly gained traction online, dividing opinions among social media users — with some supporting his emotional reaction, while others argued that Cubana Chief Priest’s post was misunderstood.
The controversy has once again highlighted the sensitivity surrounding public commentary on national tragedies, especially when mixed with political undertones.
As of now, Cubana Chief Priest has not issued any further response following Skales’ outburst, leaving the debate to continue brewing across social platforms.
