Famous businessman Obi Cubana recently had to correct something online. His adopted son, Chidi, claimed to be his “next of kin.” Next of kin means the closest living relative, who often inherits things.
Chidi posted a video on TikTok saying he was the next of kin. Obi Cubana responded on Instagram with a picture of his biological son, Alex.
Obi Cubana called Alex his “real next of kin.” He also called him “ancient and modern” and said Alex has his “eyes on the ball.” He made it clear that Alex is his true heir.
He even commented on another post, calling Alex the “original next of kin.” This caused a lot of talk online.
Many people criticized Obi Cubana. They thought he shouldn’t have handled this in public. They felt he should have spoken to Chidi privately.
Some said his response was too harsh. Others said he was right to clarify who his real next of kin is.
Some people said Obi Cubana should have told Chidi to delete the video. They thought the issue should have been handled within the family.
Others defended Chidi. They said he’s just a kid making a harmless video. They didn’t think he meant any harm. Some people wondered why Chidi would even think he was the next of kin.
One user said, “It’s like being invited to eat and bringing a huge spoon.” This means Chidi was overstepping his boundaries.
