Kenyan lady Hellen Ati, who has been publicly claiming that nightlife businessman Cubana Chief Priest fathered her child, has once again taken to social media — this time in tears — pleading with him to acknowledge the boy.

In a fresh video posted online, Hellen emotionally begged Cubana Chief Priest, real name Pascal Okechukwu, to “please come and take your child.” She also revealed that she has been ready for a DNA test from day one and doesn’t understand why he keeps denying the child.

“You’ve threatened me, my life is in danger,” she said tearfully. “I don’t even know what your plans are. But I’m just begging you to come and please have your child. Even when you want us to do the DNA, I told you I’m ready. I’m just begging you.”

This latest video comes shortly after reports surfaced that Cubana Chief Priest filed a legal petition against her in Kenya. In response, Hellen took to Instagram, posting screenshots of alleged WhatsApp chats between her and the businessman from as far back as 2022 — before the child was even born.
