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.”
