Nigerian street-hop sensation, Portable, has ignited a fresh social media storm, publicly addressing his ongoing dispute with Ashabi Simple, his fourth baby mama. The dramatic online confrontation comes in the wake of Ashabi’s alleged threat to sue the Zazu crooner for failing to provide adequate financial support for their children.
Portable’s Fiery Retaliation
In a lengthy and impassioned rant shared across his social media platforms, Portable vehemently rejected Ashabi Simple’s demands for ‘food money.’ He expressed significant frustration over her decision to involve his manager in their private family matters, questioning why she couldn’t communicate directly with him regarding their children’s welfare.
The singer voiced particular annoyance that the children are reportedly being raised at Ashabi Simple’s mother’s residence. He sarcastically pointed to Ashabi’s alleged frequent public outings, suggesting her busy social life indicated an insufficient presence in their children’s daily care. Portable further lamented a recent birthday celebration for one of their children, which reportedly took place in his absence, criticizing those who celebrated Ashabi Simple while sidelining him as the father.
Portable’s outburst, which quickly went viral, laid bare his grievances.
Distrust and a Call for Custody
During his tirade, Portable openly questioned how any money he sent for the children’s upkeep would actually be managed, expressing distrust that it would genuinely benefit them rather than be diverted for Ashabi Simple’s personal use. He dismissed the lawsuit threat with a bold counter-offer, instructing her to simply return the children to him.
The controversial artist insisted that if the children were in his direct custody, he would readily cover their school fees, organize their birthday celebrations, purchase their clothing, and ensure they were well-fed. He reiterated that his reluctance stemmed not from a desire to neglect his offspring, but from a profound lack of trust in Ashabi Simple’s financial stewardship.
A Final, Cutting Remark
Portable concluded his heated address with a pointed message directed at Ashabi Simple, declaring that she had irrevocably lost her ‘glory’ in his eyes, implying a definitive end to any hopes of reconciliation or a harmonious co-parenting relationship.
