Portable Reacts to Headies Disqualificating him
Okikiola Habeeb, also known as Portable, posted a cryptic message after being disqualified from the 2022 Headies awards.
In the late hours of Tuesday, July 26, 2022, organisers of the Headies Awards took to the official Hiptv social media accounts to announce the disqualification of Portable (Zazu), as well as the reasons behind this decision.
The reason for this disqualification was a result of his alleged affiliation with the notorious criminal group ‘1 million boys.’
The Headies Academy also drew attention to the fact that the singer threatened them in a video, indicating that if the award was not handed to him, he would damage other nominees in the same categories for which he was nominated.
He was nominated in the ‘Best Street Artist’ and ‘Rookie of the Year categories.
According to organisers, his disqualification is aimed at passing a strong message that it does not condone reckless and uncouth statements.

“I am a child of light. I have fame, I have money, I have cars, I have wives, I have children. I am rich. People know me everywhere. I don’t regret my actions”, the singer said.
