Popular Nigerian singer, Portable has expressed his disappointment after meeting Peter Obi, the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate.
The two met over the weekend in Benin, the capital of Edo State.
Obi was in Benin to support Olumide Akpata, the Labour Party’s gubernatorial candidate, while Portable was there for a show.
In a video that has since gone viral, the excited singer is seen bowing as he approaches the former Anambra State governor by his car, with both men exchanging pleasantries.
However, shortly after the encounter, Portable appeared visibly disappointed and lamented that Obi did not offer him any money.
Speaking in Yoruba, the ‘Zazoo Zeh’ crooner compared Obi unfavorably to Bola Tinubu, suggesting that the president would have been more generous in such a situation.
“Obi didn’t give us anything. If it was Tinubu, he would have given us something. Let’s go,” he said.
Portable, whose real name is Habeeb Okikiola, rose to fame in December 2021 with his hit single ‘Zazoo Zeh’, featuring Olamide and Poco Lee.
Since then, he has remained in the public eye, often for controversial reasons.
