Nigerian singer Portable has voiced his opinion on the upcoming nationwide protest.
Amid reports of various groups organizing demonstrations between August 1 and 10 to express dissatisfaction with the country’s economic hardships, particularly the rising cost of living, Portable took to his Instagram story to argue against the protest.
He stated, “Nigeria is okay,” and suggested that those planning to protest are “jobless” and should focus on their personal issues instead of protesting for Nigeria.
The ‘Zazoo Zeh’ hitmaker made it clear that he will not be participating in the protest.
Portable said, “It won’t be well with anyone who tells me to perform during the protest. Don’t you have a producer too, you should collect the mic and join the protest too.”
He continued, “Please I need money, I’m hustling. If you take your job seriously, you won’t join the protest. Fight for yourself, don’t fight for Nigeria. Nigeria is okay, you are the one who is not okay. There is money in some places, you are the one who didn’t hustle. You are the one who is not loyal to your helper.”
He must be crazy,I am very sure he must drunk before saying that. Does it mean he is blind to see the economic hardship? Or he is daft to understand the economic issue. Anyways,time and nature will soon teach him lesson.
