Portable Leaves Fans Worried after Chaotic Ikorodu Show, Cries: “They Want To Kill Me Like Mohbad”

• Popular singer Portable claimed he was nearly attacked on stage like late Mohbad and showed off an injury to prove it
• He said the attacker emerged from the audience mid-performance and tried to jab him with a needle
• Social media was abuzz as many called for the singer to get medical attention, while others questioned the incident’s truth

Nigerian street-hop singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has raised serious alarm after a performance in Ikorodu, Lagos, ended in chaos.

In a now-viral video posted on his Instagram, the "Zazu" crooner claimed that someone in the crowd attempted to inject him during the live show.

Portable, known for his eccentric performances and controversial outbursts, said the incident reminded him of the mysterious circumstances surrounding the death of fellow artist Mohbad.

According to him, he narrowly escaped what he believes could have been a fatal attack.

He declared:

“I went to perform in Ikorodu, and they injected me. They want to kill me like they did to Mohbad I was performing when a guy just ran out from the crowd to inject me. I slammed the mic on him.”

The singer further revealed that his leg was injured during the ensuing commotion as fans rushed toward him.

While clarifying that no physical fight broke out, he claimed his leg was broken in the rush of the crowd who attempted to embrace him.

“We didn’t fight each other at the show. It was just chaos. See, if they had tried to fight me, I would have retaliated. But in the process of trying to embrace me, they hit my leg.”

The visibly shaken singer showed off a swollen leg in the video and hinted that the attacker might have been sent by enemies who didn’t want him to succeed.
