Portable Laments After Meeting Obi, Says Tinubu Would Have Given Money
Controversial Nigerian singer Portable recently expressed disappointment after meeting Peter Obi, the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, during a visit to Edo State.
Portable encountered Obi in Benin over the weekend, where Obi was supporting the Labour Party’s gubernatorial candidate, Olumide Akpata.
At the same time, Portable was in town for a performance.
In a viral video circulating on social media, Portable is seen bowing and greeting Obi beside his car, showcasing his respect.
However, in a separate video shared later, the singer voiced his dissatisfaction, stating that Obi did not offer him any money during their meeting.
Comparing Obi to President Bola Tinubu, Portable told his crew that if they had met Tinubu, he believed they would have received some form of monetary gift.
He expressed his disappointment, saying, “Obi cannot give us anything. Obi didn’t give us anything. If it was Tinubu, he would have given us something.”
The incident quickly gained attention online, with fans and observers weighing in on Portable’s reaction.
While some defended his candid remarks, others criticized the expectation of financial rewards from political figures.
This encounter highlights the contrasting approaches of political leaders and the expectations of some individuals in the entertainment industry.
Nigerian singer Harry song speaks on the rising insecurity in the country and shared that increasing the security income can help improve their performance in securing the country.
The singer took to social media and urged the government “TO MR PRESIDENT. IF YOU REALLY, TRULY WANNA END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA? Start by increasing the salary and allowances of the armed forces. The salary of the army, the navy, the air force, the Nigerian Police Force is too small, too shameful. Increase their salary, this job should be worth dying for. Increase their salaries ooooooo pls and pls.”
Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye from the former duo P-Square, shares his greatest fear. During a recent interview, the singer spoke about his fears and revealed that he is not afraid of death.
Instead, he said he is scared of poverty and has this fear because he has experienced it before. “I am not afraid of death. The only thing I am afraid of in this life is poverty, of being broke.
“I have tasted it [poverty] before. I have been in our house with my parents and siblings, and a bulldozer came and demolished it.”
Popular Nigerian singer, Davido, makes headlines for his gesture of goodwill. It can be noted that during the afternoon performance, the singer paused for one minute of silence to honor his colleague Wizkid’s mother.
The singer paused during his performance and said “Personally, I have lost many loved ones, people close to me, so I understand how Wizkid is feeling right now. May his mother, our mother because she was dear to me, rest in peace.”
This gesture touched many fans, as they were in awe of the singer showing a kind heart despite the usual rivalry between their fan bases.
