Tinubu 2027: Igbo Billionaires Obi Cubana, Zenco, Cubana Chief Priest, Others Donate Multi-Million Naira Buses to Boost Southeast Campaign
Influential businessmen and nightlife entrepreneurs from Anambra State have thrown their weight behind President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s anticipated 2027 re-election campaign, donating multiple buses reportedly worth millions of naira to bolster grassroots mobilisation efforts in the Southeast.
The vehicles were formally handed over to @CityBoyMedia, the media platform of the City Boy Movement, a youth-driven political structure aligned with pro-Tinubu advocacy ahead of the 2027 general elections. PulseNets learnt that the buses are intended to strengthen logistics, community outreach, and campaign coordination across key Southeast states.
Key Donors Behind the Multi-Million Naira Support
Information obtained by PulseNets shows that the high-profile contributors include:
-
Mr. Cletus Uzoezie Oragwa, widely known as Zenco, the billionaire Chairman and CEO of Zenco Group. The conglomerate comprises Zenco Oil, Zenco Properties, Zenco Communications — West Africa’s partner for Tecno mobile devices and Juliet baby diapers — as well as D’General Bitters. He is a native of Ukpor in Nnewi South Local Government Area of Anambra State.
-
Chief Christian Okonkwo, Chief Executive Officer of C-Energy Oil.
-
Obi Cubana (Obinna Iyiegbu), the celebrated nightlife and hospitality entrepreneur.
-
Cubana Chief Priest (Pascal Chibuike Okechukwu), prominent socialite and businessman.
-
Other business associates within the network.
Sources familiar with the development told PulseNets that the donation signals an emerging bloc of Southeast business leaders aligning with the Tinubu administration as political permutations ahead of 2027 intensify.
Obi Cubana, Cubana Chief Priest and the City Boy Movement
Recent engagements further reinforce the political undertones of the gesture.
PulseNets reported that Obi Cubana recently hosted Seyi Tinubu, son of President, in Abuja, during which he reiterated his commitment to youth inclusion and economic participation under the City Boy Movement. He was subsequently appointed as the South-East Regional Director of the movement.
Cubana Chief Priest has also openly indicated his political preference for the 2027 presidential race. He declared his intention to oppose former presidential candidate Peter Obi while reaffirming support for Tinubu’s leadership trajectory.
The City Boy Movement, positioned as a youth empowerment and political engagement platform, has been expanding its footprint across Anambra, Imo, Enugu, Abia, and Ebonyi States. PulseNets learnt that the newly donated buses will be deployed for campaign rallies, voter sensitisation drives, and strategic mobilisation tours throughout the region.
Mixed Reactions Across Social Media
Reactions online have been divided. Supporters of the President describe the move as a decisive reinforcement of Tinubu’s 2027 re-election prospects in the Southeast, with some asserting that “Tinubu has already won” and that “the movement is unstoppable.”

However, others have expressed surprise at the scale of backing from influential Igbo entrepreneurs, especially amid ongoing conversations about Southeast political alignment and electoral strategy.
As of the time of filing this report, no formal statement has been issued by the Presidency or the national leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) regarding the donation.
Images and videos from the presentation ceremony have circulated widely on Facebook, Instagram, and X, showcasing the branded buses, the donors, and supporters gathered at the handover venue.
