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.
