Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has once again stirred up controversy, this time involving Afrobeats superstar Tiwa Savage. The outspoken artist, known for his dramatic antics and unfiltered remarks, recently addressed Tiwa Savage’s widely discussed revealing photos during a live session on social media.
Portable expressed his opinion that Tiwa, as a veteran in the industry, is “too old” for such displays, suggesting that this kind of attention-grabbing approach should be left to younger artists. However, his comments took a controversial turn when he made suggestive remarks about her, which many viewed as inappropriate and disrespectful.
In a surprising twist, Portable has now released a new song inspired by Tiwa Savage, and the lyrics have sparked further outrage. The track reportedly includes explicit references, with Portable expressing his desire to “sleep with the singer.” This has led to a significant backlash from fans and colleagues alike, with many condemning his lack of respect for a senior figure in the Nigerian music industry.
Fans of Tiwa Savage, as well as Portable’s critics, have taken to social media to call out his behavior. While Portable is no stranger to public criticism, this latest episode has reignited conversations about his conduct and the limits of artistic expression.
As the backlash grows, some have called on Portable to publicly apologize to Tiwa Savage, while others question whether his controversial antics are a deliberate strategy to stay relevant in the entertainment industry.
