Solomon Buchi Criticizes Obi Cubana After He Declares Biological Son ‘Next of Kin’ Following TikTok Post by Adopted Son

Writer Solomon Buchi has criticised well-known businessman Obi Cubana after he named his biological son as his “next of kin” just hours after his adopted son posted a TikTok video referring to himself as “Next of Kin.”

The situation began when Chidi, Cubana’s adopted son, shared a video on TikTok with the caption “Next of Kin.”

“Nothing do my shoulder, I just realise say I be next of kin”.

In a subtle response to Chidi’s post, Obi Cubana later shared a picture of his biological son, Alex, on his Instagram page, with the caption:

“Ancient and modern, eyes on the ball. @dtwalx aka next of kin”.

The post sparked controversy, with many critics accusing Obi Cubana of airing his family matters publicly instead of addressing them privately with Chidi.

Solomon sided with the critics, expressing his view in a Facebook post, where he wrote:

‘’Coming online to declare your biological son next of kin because of a cheeky post by your adopted son is irresponsible and crass.

Obi Cubana could have easily asked him to take the post down, but he decided to publicly remind his adopted son of “his place”. Don’t adopt children if you will not see and treat them like your blood.

I’ve seen Nigerian men defend Obi Cubana, claiming that the adopted son should have known his place. “His place” doesn’t exist because he’s his father’s son. Adoption means legally taking another child as yours, so an adopted son should have ALL the rights and privileges of a SON.

The adopted son said nothing out of line, because a week ago, Obi Cubana made a post addressing his sons as next-of-kins.

So, the boy probably made the TikTok video on that premise. Publicly throwing him under the bus shows lack of total acceptance.

May I use this opportunity to school Nigerians, especially my fellow Igbos, that adoption is not a favour; you shouldn’t treat your adopted children like they begged you to adopt them.

If you can’t treat them like blood, don’t adopt them.”
