A Kenyan woman, Hellen Ati, has claimed that Nigerian socialite Pascal Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chiefpriest, has agreed to undergo a DNA test to determine the paternity of her son.

The controversy, which has generated widespread attention on social media, began after Ati alleged that she had an encounter with the businessman during a visit to Nigeria, which later resulted in the birth of her child.

Since making the claim, she has consistently called for a DNA test to establish the truth, urging the socialite to take responsibility if confirmed as the father while emphasizing her desire for clarity over her child’s identity.

Cubana Chiefpriest, however, has repeatedly denied the allegations, maintaining that he has never met Ati and has no connection to her or the child.

In a recent update shared on her Instagram page, Ati described what she termed a breakthrough, stating that the socialite has now agreed to the DNA test—an outcome that could potentially resolve the long-standing dispute.

If conducted, the test is expected to provide clarity and possibly bring closure to the ongoing claims and counterclaims that have kept public attention on the matter.
