Reports have emerged debunking claims that renowned businessman and philanthropist, Dr. Obinna Iyiegbu, popularly known as Obi Cubana, is scheduled to participate as a keynote speaker at an event titled “Gold in Real Estate Conference.”

According to information obtained from his management team, Dr. Iyiegbu has no knowledge of the event, nor does he maintain any form of affiliation with its organisers. It was further clarified that the inclusion of his name, photograph, or brand identity in promotional handbills circulated online was done without his consent or authorization.

The disclaimer follows a wave of public inquiries and assumptions regarding his involvement in the said conference. Concerned individuals had sought confirmation, prompting the need for an official rebuttal to prevent further misinformation.

The management described the act as misleading and inappropriate, noting that the unauthorized use of Obi Cubana’s identity for commercial or promotional gain undermines public trust and could potentially mislead unsuspecting stakeholders.

They also advised members of the public, partners, and stakeholders to disregard all promotional materials suggesting his participation in the event, whether in Owerri or elsewhere. The statement further emphasized that all official engagements involving Dr. Iyiegbu are communicated strictly through verified and approved channels.

In conclusion, the public has been urged to exercise caution, verify information from credible sources, and avoid falling victim to misleading announcements made without due authorization.
