Controversial Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has shared his thoughts on the upcoming nationwide protest set to take place on August 1st.
Portable recently took to his social media page to announce that he will not participate in the protest, stating that he still needs money and will focus on hustling. According to the “Zazuu” crooner, Nigerians planning to join the protest are not taking their work seriously.
He advised that people should fight for themselves and not for Nigeria, claiming that the country is already okay. In his video, Portable cursed those asking him to perform at the planned rally. He insisted that there are opportunities and jobs in Nigeria, but many people are not taking those who can help them seriously.
The Zeh Nation boss warned that people should not let their jobs or careers become barriers to their success.
In his words, “Please, I still need money, I still dey hustle. If you are not serious with your work, that is when you will go and protest. Fight for yourself, don’t fight for Nigeria. Nigeria is okay. Money dey where money dey. Don’t let your career turn to your barrier.”
