Controversial Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola Badmus popularly known as Portable has lamented after meeting with the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi.
Portable met with Obi at Edo State over the weekend.
Obi was in Benin to support the Labour Party’s gubernatorial candidate, Olumide Akpata, while Portable was in the state for a show.
In a trending video on social media, Portable was seen bowing as he greeted Obi beside his car.
However, expressing his disappointment in a separate video, the singer complained that Obi did not offer him any money.
While comparing Obi to President Bola Tinubu, he told his crew: “Obi cannot give us anything. Obi didn’t give us anything. If it was Tinubu we met, he would have given us something. Let’s go.”
It’s worth noting that Portable’s comments have sparked a mixed reaction online, with some people sympathizing with his frustration and others criticizing him for expecting handouts from politicians ¹. Some have even called him out for being a “corporate beggar”
