Cubana Chiefpriest has publicly addressed Arise News regarding the ongoing paternity dispute with his alleged baby mama, Hellen Ati, after the television station aired a segment on the controversy. The Nigerian businessman, whose real name is Pascal Okechukwu, took to the comment section of Arise News' Instagram post to challenge the station to bring Hellen Ati and her son to their studio for a live DNA test, which he offered to conduct for free.
Background of the Dispute
Hellen Ati, a Kenyan woman, has been publicly accusing Cubana Chiefpriest of being the father of her son for an extended period. In a recent video that went viral, she was seen allegedly mistreating her son, prompting widespread calls for authorities to intervene and take custody of the child. The video also drew attention to the paternity claims, with many fans urging Cubana Chiefpriest to take a DNA test to resolve the matter definitively.
Arise News covered the saga in a video report, which prompted Cubana Chiefpriest's reaction. In his comment, he stated: "Bring Hellen Ati and her son to your station. I will come and conduct a DNA test for free on air." This direct challenge to the television station was seen as an attempt to prove his innocence or finally settle the dispute in a public forum.
Fans Divided Over Response
The response from fans has been mixed, with many taking to social media to share their opinions. Some supporters noted the striking resemblance between Hellen Ati and Cubana Chiefpriest, making it difficult for them to dismiss the paternity claims entirely. One user, @ubongcj, questioned: "So if the man no gree claim the child she no fit take care of one child on her own? Did he tell him she was pregnant and did he accept to father the child?"
Others urged Cubana Chiefpriest to proceed with the DNA test to clear his name once and for all. However, some critics accused him of being the father and called on him to take responsibility instead of allowing the controversy to continue. @chineduegems commented: "The Authorities should arrest and take that child from her before she does him harm." Another user, @cynthianwagod, expressed sympathy for the child, saying: "Chaii that boy is going through a lot, and many people are looking for a child."
The resemblance between the two was also a topic of discussion, with @eje_bailo_ejeh writing: "The major controversy sef is that even the Helen looks like Pascal." Meanwhile, @realtor_maryaugusta reacted emotionally: "May God keep this boy alive. It's so painful and shameful....people are weeping their eyes out for not being able to conceive. God please, have mercy."
Hellen Ati's Previous Statements
In earlier reports, Hellen Ati had also opened up about money she allegedly received from self-acclaimed African giant Burna Boy, as well as claims that Lucky Udu sought bedroom favours from her. These statements have further fueled public interest in her personal life and the paternity dispute. The ongoing saga continues to generate significant attention on social media, with fans and observers closely following developments.
