Controversial Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola Badmus, widely known as Portable, has taken to social media to explain his recent altercation with a preacher who was seen preaching in front of his bar a few weeks ago.
The incident, which was widely covered by Gistreel, involved Portable being captured on an Instagram Live session slapping a pastor who was preaching outside his bar.
In the video, Portable is seen confronting the preacher, physically assaulting him, and expressing his disapproval of the preacher’s presence at his business establishment. This incident has sparked significant criticism from fans and members of the clergy alike.
This has led to critics from fans and pastor at large. In response to criticism, Portable posted on his Instagram account on September 16, 2024, claiming that his sister had been attacked by a man posing as a pastor just a few weeks earlier.
Portable explained, “They want to set me up. He was not a man of God, and if he was a man of God, may God forgive me for slapping him. If I knew he was a real man of God, I won’t have slapped him. The way he acted was why I slapped him, I’m a human being and I’m not perfect,” he then apologised for his actions.
