The organisers of one of Nigeria’s prestigious awards, Headies, have written a petition to the Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba, concerning the threat to the life of some nominees of the award ceremony by artiste, Habeeb Okikiola popularly known as Portable.The organisers of the event pointed at a video released on the singer’s social media platforms whereby he uttered the words, “Those are my awards. Anybody else who wins, I will ask for them to be killed.
The artiste was nominated in two categories at the 15th edition of The Headies which is billed to hold later this year in the United States of America. In the petition, the organisers of the award demanded a retraction from the up-and-coming artiste. Moreso, he is to be invited to the police headquarters to give an undertaking not to engage in any unlawful act that will cause a breach of peace.
Furthermore, it was demanded by the organisers of The Headies that Portable should publish a written apology to all the nominees in the two categories. The organisers of the award further stated that if the singer does not meet their demands, they will not only disqualify him from participating in the Headies but “also enforce the instrumentalities of the law to the fullest.”
Lol idamu adugbo go soon enter better trouble, Nig Govt go soon put am for better case that money wey dem dey dash am go finish ontop case, shebi e nor get sense portable
E suppose reach like that? petitioning IGP because of a mere joke
He needs to be cautioned and scolded for making unguided utterances....at this level jokes like that are not allowed...he could lose awards and contracts with statements like this
This is what happens when you start promoting a murderer and an armed robber who sings crap as SOMEBODY. Only God knows the juju this ugly thing did that's making people nominate him even though he sings rubbish. Police should get this killer arrested before he kills again
Since Headies decide to use Potable catch cruise by nominating him when they know he won't win, Potable decide to catch cruise with them too. Why dem dey fear? 😂
Is he a singer? All along I've been perceiving him as either a clown or an up coming comedian.
Publicity stunts from organizers
Somebody cannot joke in peace again.... why being too mean on him?. Free him pls. Intact give him d award
Naira Marley already said it in a song that Drug is not for children… this guy should be taking to rehab because he doesn’t know what is saying …
Why the lie ffs 🤦♂️
Las las school no be scam. Education will give you certain level of self control and order in the euphoria of an unanticipated fame or gain. Don't be your own worst enemy.
I usually dont comment on things like this but since his emergence, He, Portable have been getting from one trouble to another and now this. His management or team are doing a poor job. Clean this boy up and teach him how to live within the tenets of been a celebrity. Geez!
Is the kind of people they promote nah wetin dey expect Singers with no reasonable lyrics Nonsense
Too playful..
Dem never see anything
Shebi they preferred him over Kizz Daniel. Make him disturb them more
When ppl stumble on the kind of money or resources they never dreamt about, they get intoxicated and in most cases commit blunders. His actions since he came to limelight is nothing to write home about.
Why people started taking this tout serious is what I will never understand! Calling him an artiste? This one...artiste?
Na kroos he dey catch why take him serious
What a joke of an award. Some body that sang a meaningless song nominated.
When you bring ants infested wood into your home, what do you expect to happen? Ifb
A goat is Always za goat
Portable didn't mean it. The thing about him is that he's loquacious
How true is this news? Una sure
You can take the boy out of the trench, you cant take trenches out of the boy!
This thing is nothing but a lout.
