Singer Portable makes a U-turn as he apologizes for slapping pastor who came to preach at his bar

Controversial Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has publicly apologized after slapping a pastor who came to preach at his bar.

The incident, which was caught on camera, sparked outrage online, with many criticizing the Zeh Nation boss for assaulting a man of God. Netizens and other religious figures condemned Portable’s actions and threatened to take action against him.

In response to the backlash, Portable shared a video late on Monday night, explaining the reasons behind his behavior. He attributed his reaction to past experiences and expressed regret, stating that he mistook the pastor’s visit as an attempt to cause him spiritual harm. The singer also asked God for forgiveness, acknowledging that his actions were misguided.

“My fans, community issues are different from that of the street. May God forgive me. I didn’t know he was a genuine man of God. If I knew I wouldn’t have slapped him.”

“I’m also a child of God. I’m human, I’m not perfect. I am an orphan. They have harmed my sister through this same strategy.”
