2027: Portable celebrates N100m alert after APC campaign
Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, widely known as Portable, announced Friday that he received 100 million naira in recognition of his participation in campaign activities for the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In a video that has circulated on social media, Portable displayed what appeared to be a bank alert confirming the transaction. He was seen wearing an APC-branded shirt and a cap featuring the name of Ogun West Senator Solomon Adeola, often referred to as Yayi.
Portable credited both Adeola and businessman IBD Dende for the payment, stating that it was made in acknowledgment of his involvement in the party’s campaign leading up to the 2027 general elections.
“To my dear fans! I just woke up to an alert of 100 million naira from Yayi! Thank you, IBD Dende. God bless you. Yayi instructed them to send me the money,” he said in the video.
The singer added that he had been previously informed that Senator Adeola was trying to reach him, although he initially doubted the authenticity of the message. Portable mentioned that he had been promised financial compensation for earlier campaign activities but did not receive the funds at that time.
Expressing enthusiasm over the recent payment, Portable prayed for Adeola and Dende, emphasizing that 100 million naira is a considerable sum. He had earlier disclosed publicly that he had received payment for his involvement in APC campaigns supporting President Bola Tinubu ahead of the upcoming elections.
