You know he was gonna reply right? Cubana Chief Priest has responded to Billionaire Cosmas Maduka after the business mogul criticized his popular phrase, “money na water”
In a series of Instagram posts, Chief Priest defended the slang, calling it a reflection of modern wealth and abundance rather than vanity.
“With all due respect to the motivational speaking older generation who built wealth quietly, the world you thrived in is not the one we live in today,” he wrote.
“In your time, capital was factories, fleets, and real estate. Today, attention is the main capital. Visibility has become the new currency. In a digital economy, obscurity is bankruptcy. What you don’t show doesn’t sell. What you don’t amplify dissolves into silence.”
Chief Priest argued that “money na water” represents excess liquidity, abundance, and flow. “Water moves, so does relevance, visibility, and influence. The ability to attract attention and sustain engagement is the new oil field. A man with massive attention today has more leverage than one with quiet billions but no presence.”
He also defended modern African billionaires like Tony Elumelu and Femi Otedola, praising how they use their wealth to create visibility and impact. “This is a generation that builds platforms to project wealth, not fences to hide it,” he added.
Chief Priest concluded by asserting that “money na water” is a prophecy of wealth overload, not a careless boast.
“Silence once symbolized power. Today, presence does. Content is digital equity. Money water na my business be this, na my lamba—make nobody try spoil am as e dey go.”
