Siblings of Rev. Chidiebere Amakaeze have kicked following his claims against nightclub entrepreneur, Obi Cubana, insisting that the businessman is not indebted in anyway to the family.
In a now viral video, they claim Cubana had in fact supported them for years.
Speaking on behalf of the family, Mr. Nwem Amakaeze, the immediate younger brother, said Cubana has consistently fulfilled all financial obligations on the Wuse 2 property in dispute and has even done more than one can imagine.
“Let it be on record that Obi Cubana does not owe the Amakaeze family. We are six surviving children. Five of us are united; only our eldest brother chose to go his own way. Despite that, Obinna still pays him and even more,” he said.
He alleged that Rev. Chidiebere had misrepresented himself as the family’s only surviving next-of-kin in 2018 to obtain a sole letter of administration, describing his actions as “wickedness of the highest order.”
He said, “My brother gives an impression that in fighting Obi Cubana or trying to remove him from the premises, he is doing it on behalf of the family, but there is no lie bigger than that.
“In 2018, you came to the Abuja Federal High Court and swore an affidavit that you are the only surviving next of kin and son of Rev. Michael Nwobi Amakaeze. On that premises, you deceived the court to give you a sole letter of administration which was countered then. There is no need for sentiments.”
Nwem further alleged that their brother had repeatedly stirred conflict, including filing false petitions and inciting social-media attacks against Cubana.
“The information that Obi is trying to take somebody’s property is not correct. Obi just said, “ you have siblings. I can settle today, but they need to have a share. I grew up with them, they are my friends, they are my family.”
“The problem is internal. For 10 years, I haven’t seen my brother. All he sends are threats and insults. Obi Cubana is only insisting that any settlement must include all siblings,” he added.
Their elder sister, Adaolisa Amakaeze, also defended Cubana in a separate video, saying he has taken care of the family and paid rent as caretaker of the property, stressing that he is not owing and should not be forced out.
This comes after Abuja court sheriffs executed an eviction order on December 9, 2025, at Plot 81, Ademola Adetokunbo Crescent, formerly the Cubana Lounge, and handed possession to businessman Mr. Collins Onwuzulike.
Rev. Chidiebere had claimed he sold the property to Onwuzulike for N2 billion, a claim his siblings have now publicly disputed.
