Controversial Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, widely known as Portable, has sparked fresh reactions on social media after commenting on the ongoing debate surrounding Wizkid and Seun Kuti. In a viral video, the Zazoo Zeh crooner confidently positioned himself as one of the most influential figures in the Nigerian music scene.
Portable compared himself to Afrobeat legend Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, suggesting that his impact rivals that of the late music icon. He claimed that no current Nigerian artist surpasses him, implying that anyone claiming superiority is, by extension, below his level.
While he did not explicitly name Wizkid or Seun Kuti, his remarks came amid heated online discussions comparing contemporary artists to Fela and debating the preservation of his legacy. This timing led many social media users to interpret Portable’s statements as a subtle response to the ongoing controversy.
The singer’s trademark boldness and outspoken style quickly drew attention, dividing opinion online. Some dismissed his claims as overblown, while others praised his confidence and willingness to engage in the trending conversation.
Portable continues to remain a polarizing figure, frequently dominating online discussions with his unfiltered comments about the Nigerian music industry.
