I was once paid to insult Tinubu” – Singer Portable reveals

Controversial singer, Habeeb Okikiola, better known as Portable, has revealed that he was once paid to insult the presidential candidate of the AllProgressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

The Zazu Zeh star made this revelation while reacting to the backlash he received for declaring support for Tinubu ahead of the 2023 general election.

Portable, who disclosed that he once collected money to speak ill of a politician, said the table has now turned, as APC has now paid him to support its candidates.

In a new video he shared on his Instagram page, he told those criticizing him for supporting Tinubu that he was only doing his job.


“If they pay you money, you have to work. I was once paid to insult Tinubu during the protests. That was a long time ago. Now, APC has said Akoi Tinubu.⁣
