Portable recounts how he got involved in a fight with show promoter in Canada mall
Controversial Nigerian street hop singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has recounted how he and his DJ got involved in a scuffle with a show promoter in Canada.
The energetic performer in a video shared on his official social media page claimed he was at a shopping mall and wanted to spend some private time with his DJ. Still, the performance organizer insisted he accompany him to his restaurant.
However, the ‘Zazu’ crooner said that he declined the request made by the show promoter, who reacted aggressively by raining punches on him and his DJ in an incident that later involved the police.
