Hold up—did I read that right? 47 cows? For a burial? Yes, 47 cows. Not 4, not 7, but a full-blown herd of 47 cows, all gifted by Cubana Chief Priest to Obi Cubana’s childhood friend. And the internet is losing its mind. Obi himself can’t stop gushing, calling Cubana Chief Priest a “record-setter” for this insane display of loyalty.

But here’s the kicker: is this about friendship? Or is it just a flex on all of us who can barely afford lunch, let alone an entire cow army?

Cows Over Compassion?

Okay, let’s break this down. It’s one thing to give your friend a heartfelt gift, like a nice watch or a surprise vacation. But 47 cows? What are they, trying to start a livestock empire? Are they even pretending to care about, I dunno, actual human issues? I mean, there are Nigerians out there literally struggling to make ends meet, and here we are, watching two billionaires literally throw cows at each other like it's a Saturday afternoon game.

This is the part where I pause and ask: Where’s the line between generosity and straight-up showboating? Because if this is friendship, then I’m out.

The 'Cultural' Argument—Really?

Look, I get it. In Igbo culture, gifting cows is a big deal. It’s a symbol of wealth, respect, and status. But 47 cows? Are we even pretending this is about culture anymore, or is it just about showing off to your millionaire pals who are trying to out-cow each other? It’s giving “I’ll give you 47 cows if you give me 48,” and frankly, I’m getting tired of the race to the top of the ridiculousness ladder.

And don’t get me started on the whole loyalty angle. You can’t just buy loyalty with cows, can you? Loyalty should be built on trust, not on how much beef you can throw around. But hey, I guess when you’re swimming in cash, you do what you gotta do to keep your friendships afloat. If I had 47 cows to throw around, who knows, maybe I’d do the same (or would I?).

Where’s the Self-Awareness?

Here’s the most annoying part: the timing. While these two are out here making a mockery of real friendship with their 47-cow contest, millions of Nigerians can’t even afford a proper meal. People are literally hustling for pennies, and these guys are throwing herds of cows into the spotlight as if it’s normal.

Do we even acknowledge the tone-deafness of all this? Where is the sense of responsibility that comes with all this wealth? I don’t know about you, but when billionaires are throwing cows around like they’re Monopoly pieces, I start wondering if they’ve lost touch with reality.

The Bottom Line: Flexing or Friendship?

So, let me ask you this: If your bestie rolls up with 47 cows, what’s your first thought? “Wow, I feel so loved!” Or are you wondering if they’re just trying to one-up you in the most extravagant way possible? At what point do grand gestures stop being about genuine love and start being about flexing for the gram?

Honestly, this whole thing reeks of wealthy gamesmanship—and if that’s what friendship looks like in the billionaire world, then maybe I’ll pass on joining the club.

But hey, let me know your thoughts—are Obi Cubana and Cubana Chief Priest redefining loyalty, or are they just playing us all for fools? Because, honestly, I’m starting to wonder if the cows are the only things that are real here.
