Dignitaries, celebrities, and currency rain at Obi Cubana’s 50th celebration

When Obi Cubana throws a party, you can be sure it won’t be anything ordinary. But even by his own high standards, his 50th birthday bash was in a league of its own.
Held over the weekend, the celebration wasn’t just a birthday party—it was a full-blown carnival of wealth, admiration, and star-studded camaraderie.
Videos that flooded the internet showed guests doing what can only be described as “spraying with purpose.”
Bales of money were tossed—not just onto the celebrant, but into a designated cash box. At one point, an actual iron cooking pot was used to offload bundles of cash into the container. Naira, dollars, pounds… the currencies came from all angles.
The atmosphere? Electric. From political bigwigs like Peter Obi to entertainment heavyweights like Iyabo Ojo, Cubana Chief Priest, Bukky Wright, and Pretty Mike, the guest list was as elite as it gets.
Every camera flash, every cheer, every tossed bundle of cash added to the surreal energy of the event.
But Obi Cubana’s celebration wasn’t just about glitz. Leading up to the event, the businessman had already made waves by giving away Keke Napeps (tricycles) and even distributing truckloads of rams—acts of generosity that have become part of his brand.
And Nigerians noticed.
Social media lit up with reactions, many hailing him as not just a wealthy man, but a beloved figure who continues to give back even as he receives.
At 50, Obi Cubana isn’t slowing down—he’s just raising the bar for what a Nigerian celebration can look like.
