Portable enumerate reasons for not performing at Tinubu’s inauguration

Nigerian music star, Habeeb Okikiola popularly known as Portable has explained why he refused to perform at the inauguration concert staged for the incoming president, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

The controversial musician in a video posted on social media informed that he refused to perform at the concert held on Thursday, May 25, in Abuja because the organizers of the event wanted to offer him N5 million instead of N10m for his performance.

The ‘Zazu’ crooner said that he was forced to tear the contract papers after he learned that N10 million had been budgeted for him to perform but that he was only going to be paid N5 million.

Portable said; “Na me sing Akoi Tinubu o. No be Obi una dey vote for? Tinubu enters now those useless people una go dey perform there, no be me promote Tinubu? Na so them call my manager o.

‘‘Say them want make I come perform for Abuja. Na 10 million them drop o, but na five million go reach Portable hand. Na so I no gree, I tear the paper. I delete the number, you dey whine Jesus? Na hin no make me perform for Abuja o.”
