I’m smarter than those who went to school – Portable boasts
Embattled Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has boasted that he is smarter than most educated people.
The ‘Zazoo’ crooner, while reflecting on his life, said he has learned more in the streets than in the four walls of a classroom.
Portable made the remarks on his social media handles on Thursday, amidst his rift with the Nigeria Police.
In an Instagram post, the controversial singer wrote, “Zazuu I have learned more in the streets than in any classroom. I’m still smarter than you in the Zoo my future is in God’s hands. Ika of Africa Akoi Grace. Dr Zeh Nation many many inspiration.”
Recall that Portable was handed a 72-hour ultimatum by the Ogun State Police Command to report himself to the nearest police station after he was captured in a viral video resisting arrest by operatives of the force.
However, in a video shared on his Tiktok page, the singer explained that the man who brought the police to arrest him was his ex-worker and was into Internet fraud against his advice.
He claimed he disciplined the ex-staff after he refused to change his ways and sacked him.
He maintained that what transpired between him and the complainant was none of the police’s business, insisting that he has the right to beat his worker.
The 72-hour ultimatum issued to Portable by the Police on Wednesday expires Friday [today].
