In a recent interview with media personality Chude Jideonwu, renowned Nigerian businessman and socialite Obi Cubana shared a deeply personal aspect of his family’s history. He revealed that his family has been plagued by a generational curse that prevents any member from living beyond the age of 80.

Obi Cubana explained that this ominous pattern has been a part of his family’s legacy for generations. Despite his late mother’s efforts to defy the curse, she passed away at the age of 79, just one year short of breaking the cycle. Her passing was particularly poignant, as she had hoped to be the one to change this pattern.

In tribute to his mother and to acknowledge the significance of this ongoing curse, Obi Cubana and his family decided to hold a lavish funeral ceremony. The elaborate event was not just a way to honor his mother’s memory, but also a gesture of respect and recognition of the familial struggle against the generational jinx.

Obi Cubana’s candid discussion sheds light on the challenges his family has faced and the profound impact of such a persistent curse. It also highlights the broader cultural context of how personal and familial struggles are sometimes intertwined with deeper, symbolic meanings in different communities.
