Nigerian artist Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, recently shared his experience after meeting Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate.
The encounter, which took place at a private event, quickly drew attention, with Portable expressing his admiration for Obi’s leadership and vision for Nigeria.
Known for his lively personality and candid style, Portable shared his excitement about meeting the prominent politician. In a series of social media posts, the “Zazuu” singer praised Obi’s dedication to the Nigerian people and shared his thoughts on national issues.
Today, I met a great man, someone who is ready to take Nigeria to the next level. Peter Obi is a man of the people, and I’m happy to have this opportunity to connect with him,” Portable said in one of the videos posted on his Instagram page.
However, in another video, Portable humorously noted that he didn’t receive any cash from Obi, drawing a comparison with Nigerian President Bola Tinubu.
“Let’s be going, Obi cannot give us anything. Obi didn’t give us anything. If it was Tinubu we met, he would have given us something. Let’s go,” he stated.
