Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as 'Portable'

Nigerian musician, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has taken a swipe at Afrobeat superstar, David Adeleke, also known as Davido, for “Unfollowing” him on social media due to alleged political interest.

Portable made his position known via his Instagram page after he discovered Davido had unfollowed him on Friday.

While Davido is well-known as a Peoples Democratic Party supporter, with his uncle, Senator Ademola Adeleke, as the Osun State governorship candidate of the party in the election on July 16, 2022, Portable had been rooting for Governor Adegboyega Oyetola of the All Progressives Congress for the same election.

The Zazu crooner, in several videos, was seen rooting for Oyetola and the APC presidential candidate for the 2023 elections, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

There were speculations that Davido had unfollowed him over the former’s decision to back the APC in Osun State, a decision Portable said was taken after he was paid to do so.

Confirming the speculation, Portable took to his Instagram page to spite Davido for unfollowing him because he was trying to secure his future.

He explained that unlike his senior counterpart, Davido, who is from a wealthy home, he wasn’t fortunate to come from one, which was why he was propelled to hustle real hard to make money and not go back to the trenches.

He said: “Open your ears and listen.

“My father isn’t a rich man, I am not a son of a rich man, I am from the trenches.

“I am the one that brought riches to my family.

“Open your ears so my words can enter.

“I am running and hustling in this manner and it is simply because of money.

“And also to avert the suffering my family had to endure, which doesn’t become my portion.

“Once again, my father is not a rich man.

“I come from the trenches but managed to bring my family into wealth.

“So support who support you.

“They wasted no time in unfollowing us.”

P-Square feud returns as Paul Okoye claims ownership of Peter’s new single

In a rather shocking turn of events, Rudeboy has claimed ownership of Mr. P’s new single ‘Winning’ released on November 8, 2024.

Peter Okoye AKA Mr. P who is one half of the legendary music duo has released a new 2-pack EP with the songs ‘Winning’ and ‘Attention’ and the former has now become a subject of dispute among the brothers.

In a shocking post on his Instagram, Paul Okoye AKA Rudeboy has claimed ownership of ‘Winning’ while also uploading the demo version to back his claim in what is the latest chapter in their ongoing feud.

“Song title : WINNING

Written and sang by RUDEBOY

Produced by same producer.

NOW HOW COME ? NOW AM I SUPPOSE TO RELEASE ANOTHER VERSION? Mr Producer your case na for another day …

Just a simple thing : Bring 6 song let me bring 6 song … submitted my 6 songs to the so called management. why re-singing my own song word for word 🤷🏾‍♂️ Song that was sopos to be in my album next year June,” the caption reads in pidgin English.

According to Rudeboy, he submitted ‘Winning’ as one of the six songs he wrote for the now-cancelled P-Square reunion album. The song appears to be a message to the dueling brothers who continue to disregard fans’ and stakeholders’ calls to settle their differences.

Rudeboy continued his outburst on his Instagram story where he said the days of manipulations are over while warning that he will continue to release the demo of any songs written by him.

‘Winning’ has now taken an ironic turn as the song that calls for peace has become the subject of a new dispute of intellectual theft between the brothers.

Mr. P has yet to react to Rudeboy’s claim in the public dispute between the brothers, who have been at loggerheads for nearly a decade.

Earlier in the year, the Okoye brothers including their older brother and former Manager Jude took to social media to share their sides of the story on the infamous EFCC case allegedly instituted by Peter against his brothers over what he claimed was mismanagement of funds.
