CONTROVERSIAL Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has alleged that he was assaulted after refusing to refund a N3.5 million fee for a featured song.
The Zazuu crooner made this known in a series of posts on his Instagram account on Monday, where he shared videos showing aggressive men yelling at him in an apartment.
Another video depicted the confrontation intensifying and moving into a bedroom.
Portable also shared a medical report from Lagos Island General Hospital, which he submitted to the DPO of Ajah police station.
Portable explained that after agreeing to a N2.5 million deal for a song feature with US-based artists, he requested an additional N1 million.
Despite shooting the video in Ajah, Portable disclosed that they demanded a refund and allegedly attacked and injured him, adding that his eyes were “bruised” during the alleged assault.
Speaking in a mixture of Pidgin English and Yoruba in the video, he said, “Eyin fans mi I don come back from hospital o, won ni mo ti ni injury loju o. So those people because of say I help una now una say una won feature me, na two dem be.
“They want to feature me from America. Una gave my manager N2.5 million. As my manager gave me the money, na last year dem give me the money, this year I talk say price don high o.
“I do the video for them after they paid me N1 million again. As I reach there na him dey attack me say I must refund o.
“Won gbe mi kuro n be ni mi o mo nkankan o.”
Portable rose to prominence in December 2021 with the debut of ‘Zazoo Zeh’ and has consistently made headlines for various controversial incidents since then.
