According to the source article, Nigerian socialite Pascal Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chief Priest, has reacted publicly to Davido’s loss at the 2026 Grammy Awards.


Davido was nominated in the Best African Music Performance category but lost the award to South African singer Tyla during the ceremony held on Sunday. The outcome marked another Grammy setback for the Nigerian artist.


Following the announcement, Cubana Chief Priest shared his views in a post on Instagram, where he suggested that Davido’s repeated Grammy losses were part of alleged pressure from Western music industry figures. He claimed the situation was intended to frustrate the singer and push him to compromise his personal values.


In his message, the socialite encouraged Davido to remain focused, continue releasing music, and avoid any actions that conflict with his beliefs. He also urged the singer to move past the awards outcome and maintain momentum in his career.


Davido has not publicly responded to the comments as of the time of reporting.
