Controversial Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has revealed why he refused to perform at the president-elect, Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Concert in Abuja on Thursday.
Portable on Friday, in viral clips posted on social media, revealed that the Tinubu inauguration concert organisers offered him N5 million instead of N10 million that was billed for his performance.
Sharing videos on his Instagram page, the Zazuu crooner said, “ZAzuu Them Dõn Rip Me ooh Na Me Sing Akoi TINUBU. Eja Loni lbu.
“Give What Belongs To ZAZUU To ZAZUU.
“Na me sing Akoi Tinubu o. No be Obi una dey vote for? Tinubu enters now, those useless people went to perform there, no be me promote Tinubu?
“That was what they called my manager, saying they want me to perform in Abuja. And I was paid 10 million naira, but na five million, go reach my hand.
“That was why I disagreed, tore the paper and deleted the number. You dey whine, Jesus? Na him no make me perform for Abuja o,” he said.
According to reports, many artists, including Wande Coal, KCee and others performed at the concert, which Tinubu and his vice, Kashim Shettima, also attended.
