Popular Nigerian socialite, Pascal Okechukwu, known as Cubana Chiefpriest, has advised his fans to embrace a fake lifestyle.
He shared his thoughts in a post on his official Instagram handle, explaining the benefits of looking wealthier than one truly is.
He believes that pretending to be rich can lead to real opportunities.
He warned that those who don’t present themselves well may face difficulties.
In his words:
“Make Sure You Appear Rich, That’s The Fastest Access To Open Doors. Na Fake Life Go Bring You Real Life. If You No Add Packaging For Your Life You Go Suffer Tire.”
Fans however reacted, relating the deep thoughtful advice to personal branding.
One social media user; @Bakibaofabuja_ wrote; “Funny that is the pure truth tho. The way you present yourself is your worth.”
@Laerryblue: “That’s where personal branding comes in!!”
@I_amkingjojo: “Read my lips ! There’s an atom of truth in this!!!!”
@Jessica_ehi: “No truer words 👏👏.”
@_dj_vee: “If you like look rich , make your helper think say you done make am.”
@haus_von_sean_stars: “It is not really about what you wear. It is about your confidence level. How much confidence do you have? Many less privileged people fear the rich. They feel intimidated standing to talk to a rich person or someone in a position to help them. You should not fear them, but respect them. Once they sense the fear in you plus you are not dressed appropriately, they will treat you like what you make yourself to be..a poor man. Rather go with confidence, talk with confidence..NOT arrogance tho, and you will be treated differently. I remember back then I wore a $5 tshirt and some knickers and went to price a lambo. The man at first was giving me the “how dare you ” vibes. By the time I finished with him..he was asking for my address to send my documents and catalogues to choose my soec from. Years later I had the money and bought the lambo. Don’t wait until you have the money..go there and get inspired first. The confidence should come from within, naturally. Not from your “fake” Gucci. Trust me most rich people can see through that BS of a fake life. I see it too.”
@urch_lordreign: “Packaging for make your destiny helper think say you don make.”
@Justme_chioma_: “‘Fakė it till you make it’. Noted. Make I go find Aba made gucci first.”
@Officialdavis___: “Where I fit see PJ rent? This December suppose hot 😂.”
