I refused to perform at Tinubu’s inauguration concert because N10m but wanted to give me N5m – Singer Portable

Portable, a singer whose real name is Habeeb Okikiola, has revealed that he declined to perform at the Tinubu inauguration concert held on Thursday, May 25, in Abuja. He stated that the reason for his decision was that the organizers of the event offered him a payment of N5 million instead of the agreed-upon N10 million for his performance.

He explained that he had been informed that there was a budget of N10 million allocated for his performance, but the organizers intended to pay him only N5 million.

In a video he shared, he said; “Na me sing Akoi Tinubu o. No be Obi una dey vote for? Tinubu enter now those useless people una go dey perform there, no be me promote Tinubu? Na so them call my manager o. Say them want make I come perform for Abuja. Na 10 million them drop o, but na five million go reach Portable hand. Na so I no gree, I tear the paper. I delete the number, you dey whine Jesus? Na hin no make me perform for Abuja o.”
