She was asked personal questions, including the controversy surrounding her child being claimed by two individuals alleging to be the child’s father.

The actress added that Portable was the one who commented so she went on to abuse and insult him, calling him “a dirty mad boy from Sango.”

In a subsequent video, Portable responded, emphasising that Bakare had earlier stated that if her husband cheats, she’ll cheat as well.

Consequently, he cautioned her against associating with his wife, saying that her influence might hurt his wife

Portable stated: “No be you do interview say if your husband cheats, you go cheat. Due to this, I messaged and asked that you shouldn’t associate with my wife, who is an actress.”

“Because you’re unfortunate, you might advise her to cheat as well.”

Regarding Bakare’s comment about him being a dirty boy, Portable said: “You called me a dirty boy, but I can buy and marry you. Who is your husband? Tell me your husband.”

Accept broke men or put up with busy ones – Kanayo O. Kanayo tells ladies

Nollywood actor Kanayo O. Kanayo has shared his thoughts on relationships and what women may need to consider when choosing a partner.

In a recent post on his Instagram page, he advised ladies to think carefully about their priorities and what they are willing to accept in a relationship.

Kanayo O. Kanayo suggested that women who are not willing to be with someone who is financially struggling may need to be prepared to date someone who is very busy and has limited time to devote to a relationship.

He presented this as a trade-off, implying that women may need to make a choice between these two options.

On his Instagram page, Kanayo wrote:

“The gentleman’s code: If you don’t want a man who is broke, you are going to have to put up with a busy one.”

In another news, Kanayo defends Davido amid backlash over economic comment.

The statement has since ignited widespread criticism, with many calling for the musician to apologize.

However, Kanayo, currently in the UK, addressed the controversy in a video shared on Instagram, urging Nigerians to respect Davido’s right to free speech.

The veteran actor highlighted that Davido, despite his privileged background, made the comments out of concern for the average Nigerian.

Dismissing the demands for an apology, Kanayo said:

“Nigerians make una leave Davido alone about the comment he made; it’s freedom of speech and he made it in good faith. It is left for those in power to work harder to give us a better Nigeria. We need to build a better Nigeria,” he said partly.

“Some people say he should apologize; apologize for what? He’s a Nigerian and he made his statement in good faith. Those who criticize us wants the best out of us. Davido and his family can feed well but he speaks for other Nigerians who cannot,” he added.
