Controversial Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, appears to have started the year amid fresh controversy after a trending video featuring him emerged.
The singer, who has remained in the headlines since the beginning of the year, sparked widespread reactions online after a clip surfaced showing him struggling as a group of people restrained him while he attempted to pull away.
Unverified reports circulating on social media claimed that the incident was linked to his baby mama, Ashabi, with suggestions that she had him arrested. However, as of the time of filing this report, neither Portable nor Ashabi has publicly confirmed the circumstances surrounding the video.
The footage, which has continued to spread across social media platforms, has generated intense reactions from users, many of whom expressed concern about the singer’s repeated involvement in controversies.
Reacting to the clip, some users wrote:
“This guy no dey stay a complete week without entering wahala,” one Chubuike commented.
“Portable is a disgrace to the Nigerian music industry,” another user, New Solar Company, wrote.
“So he and DJ Chicken dey share most disgrace award,” Oreoluwa added.
Others called for professional help, with Mandella writing, “Honestly speaking, Portable really need a rehab.”
Another user, glorious_lefty72, commented, “Portable get money but no get peace of mind.”
While opinions remain divided, the video has once again placed Portable at the centre of public debate, reinforcing his reputation as one of the most controversial figures in the Nigerian music scene.
As of now, details surrounding the incident remain unclear, and no official statement has been issued by the parties involved.
