Nigerian businessman Obi Cubana is gearing up to build the biggest city in Africa.
On his Instagram page, he shared photos of himself on site, revealing that he is building the best duty in Africa – a city of jewels.
He stated that one’s dreams should give them sleepless nights and that the power of positive thinking should be used.
“Your dreams should give you sleepless nights!!!
The power of positive thinking!
I’ll retake this picture at the same spot on 12th April 2026, by God’s grace and mercy, so you’ll see the transformation!
My BEST outputs manifest, especially when I’m being doubted!
The human mind, capability and capacity are way too large to comprehend!
How are you applying yours?
We are building the BEST CITY IN AFRICA!!!!
Cubana Millennium City is DISRUPTIVE!
Cubana Millennium City is The Jewel On The Niger!!
Cubana Millennium City will definitely wow you”.
The billionaire businessman announced on Instagram that he has become a new creature and that old things have passed away. He noted how God has been massively good to him and everything that concerns him.
Last week was raining titles for Cubana. Kemi Filani reported that the Cubana group founder was conferred chieftaincy, the Ife Igbo-Ji-Ka, by the Igwe and traditional council of Enugwu–Ukwu na Umunri, led by Igwe Ralph Obumnemeh Ekpeh.
Not done, the billionaire businessman had received another traditional honour in Anambra State. He was conferred with the chieftaincy title Okpataozueora I of Oba by the Igwe of Oba, His Royal Majesty, Engr. Sir Augustine Chinedu Emelobe, GON (Eze Okpoko II of Oba).
These blessings are coming months after the businessman was reportedly ejected from one of his properties in Abuja by the FCT High Court Enforcement Unit. In videos that circulated online, enforcement officers were seen clearing out equipment and other valuables as police officers were on the ground to support them.
Obi Cubana has no doubt come a long way in life. In 2022, he recounted how circumstances almost ruined his convocation at UNN. The Cubana Group founder narrated his experience while travelling for his convocation, recounting how he and his friends travelled on night bus because of its affordability and cheapness. Unfortunately, he lost one of the priceless gifts his uncle gave him for his good grades and that nearly ruined his convocation.
His philanthropic acts and business acumen earned him a Doctorate in Business Administration from Enugu State University.
In 2023, he expressed joy at fulfilling some of his core values as he attended the 50th Convocation ceremony of UNN.
The businessman rose to fame following the burial ceremony, which attracted business executives, pop stars like Davido, Dbanj, KCee, E-Money, Poco Lee and Ubi Franklin and actors Kanayo Kanayo, Alex Ekubo and Williams Uchemba.
The burial made headlines in Nigeria for days and weeks because of its grandeur and richness—the high point was when the businessman received 246 cows from his friends.
