Controversial Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola Badmus, popularly known as Portable, has once again taken to social media to vent his frustrations over ongoing issues with his First Bank account.
In a new series of Instagram videos, the Zazoo Zeh crooner claimed that his business account remains frozen despite receiving continuous deposits, alleging that his repeated pleas to the bank have been ignored.
The singer linked his ordeal to the recent arrest of social media critic VeryDarkMan (Vincent Martins Otse), who was reportedly detained after visiting a GTBank branch — an incident that has sparked conversations about the treatment of outspoken public figures.
Portable alleged that First Bank is tracking his movements and even went as far as claiming that there is an attempt to kidnap him. “Problem wants to happen! They are tracking me from First Bank, they want to kidnap me. Why are those people tracking me? Am I owing you money? What did I do to you?” he said in a now-viral video.
The singer firmly denied any involvement in fraudulent activity, insisting that all funds in the account were earned legitimately through music streams, shows, and endorsements. He shockingly claimed the account holds over ₦400 billion and that he receives daily payments into it.
In a dramatic moment, Portable appeared in a video holding up a charm made with white thread and cowries, calling on spiritual forces to intervene.
He also speculated that his troubles with the bank may be linked to a past clash with Fuji icon Saheed Osupa, who once allegedly had him arrested. Now that peace has reportedly been restored between them, he believes the bank should lift the restrictions on his account.
The incident has stirred widespread attention on social media, with fans expressing a mix of sympathy, disbelief, and skepticism, as many await a response from First Bank regarding the explosive allegations.
