“STEP ASIDE, LEGENDS!” Portable Accuses Davido And Wizkid Of Hoarding The Spotlight And Killing Other Artistes’ Careers!.
Controversial Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, better known as Portable, has voiced his frustration that heavyweights like Davido, Wizkid, Burna Boy, and Olamide have held a tight grip on the peak of the Nigerian music scene for over a decade. In a video posted to his Instagram story, he argued that while these Afrobeats giants have actively helped push other artists into the limelight, their stubborn refusal to step down or retire has effectively blocked a new generation from taking over the spotlight. Portable drew a contrast with past legends like 2Face, Timaya, and Eedris Abdulkareem, who had their time and eventually moved on.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Shifting his focus to the traditional music scene, the Zazuu crooner called out veteran Fuji stars—specifically naming K1 De Ultimate, Pasuma, and Saheed Osupa—accusing them of failing to support and lift up underground Fuji acts the way Afrobeats stars do. He also humorously justified his public callouts of top artists, admitting that his controversial antics toward the likes of Olamide, Wizkid, and Davido are simply tactical moves to get close to them, chill out, and tap into their wealth.
Summarizing his unfiltered thoughts, Portable stated: “If you see me drag Olamide, the reason is because I want to chill with him. If you see me drag Wizkid, I want to chill with him. If you see me drag Davido, I want to spend his money. Davido, Burna Boy, Olamide and Wizkid are trying; they blow people up, but Fuji Artistes like K1 De Ultimate, Pasuma and Osupa Saheed aren’t lifting Fuji underground artistes up. Four artistes have been reigning in Nigeria for over 10 years. Timaya, 2face, and Eedris Abdulkareem came, reigned and left, but Davido, Olamide, Burna Boy, and Wizkid have refused to retire and let other artistes to reign.”

THE UNTOLD STORY OF A LADIES’ MAN! Why Jim Iyke Admits He Was Toasting Women On A Weekly Basis!.
Nollywood icon Jim Iyke recently shared a hilarious look back at his university days during an appearance on the Lahor Podcast, confessing that his complete inability to cook led him to weaponize romance for home-cooked meals.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
The actor admitted that because he couldn’t boil water for survival, he made a habit of pursuing new romantic interests on a weekly basis solely to have them cook for him, only to break things off right after the meal was served. This cyclical food-for-romance scheme worked smoothly until he was finally caught red-handed, tanking his dating reputation across his entire department and causing the women there to completely shut him out. Reflecting on the amusing chapter, Jim Iyke joked, “The only thing I don’t know how to do in this life is cooking. In university, I used to toast girls every week so they could cook for me. Once she finished cooking, I’d break up with her. The day I was caught, the whole department stopped giving me a chance.” 😂
