“APC should bring the money to me, they cheated cubana chief priest” — Portable fires shots at socialite
Controversial street-hop singer Portable has once again stirred reactions online after launching a verbal attack on socialite Cubana Chief Priest while also positioning himself as a better option for political campaigning linked to President Bola Tinubu and the ruling All Progressives Congress.
The singer made the comments in a viral video, coming just days after Cubana Chief Priest alleged that some figures within Tinubu’s political circle distrust him because of his Igbo heritage and his past association with Peter Obi during the 2023 elections.
The nightlife entrepreneur had also spoken about receiving political gifts and support from allies within the ruling party.
Reacting sharply to the situation, Portable claimed Cubana Chief Priest had been sidelined and used politically before being dropped.
“They cannot cheat me the way they cheated Cubana Chief Priest. They cheated him and shifted him. Maybe the money he paid them was not enough. You even lost election to an old man. Are you the one telling people to vote for Tinubu?”
Portable didn’t stop there. He went on to criticise the socialite for what he described as a lack of visible impact in his community despite his wealth and influence.
“You went to your village to share garri but you didn’t sink borehole for your people. I am a Yoruba man, they should use me for this. APC should give me the money instead of wasting it on you. I am ready and available,” he added.
The singer, known for his outspoken personality and frequent online outbursts, insisted that he would be a more effective face for political mobilization if given the opportunity.
Portable had previously declared support for Tinubu during the 2023 presidential campaign and has continued to publicly align himself with political figures and conversations since then, often in controversial fashion.
