Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, known as Portable, says he is demanding additional payment from President Bola Tinubu and his son, Seyi Tinubu, after performing at an All Progressives Congress (APC) campaign rally in Lagos. The rally took place on Tuesday at Onikan Stadium and included politicians and entertainers.
Portable appears in a viral video complaining that the demands of the event left him exhausted. He says he fainted during the campaign rally due to the physical strain of entertaining and the conditions at the venue, including heat and overcrowding. He also asks to meet Tinubu and Seyi Tinubu, and argues that he was already paid but should receive more money. Other outlets describe similar claims, while online reactions debate the role of entertainers in political events and whether performers are properly compensated.
Across the reports, the central focus is Portable’s public complaint about compensation and his account of fainting at the rally, rather than any response from the Tinubus or the APC.
