Controversial Nigerian artiste Habeed Okikiola, better known as Portable, has ignited conversation on social media with a recent Instagram post concerning his personal love life. In it, he confessed that he feels empty.
This is not the first time Portable has stirred controversy, but his latest post has left many Nigerians questioning his true intentions.
Portable opened up about feeling unloved and unappreciated. His heartache was particularly evident in his post on his Instagram story. He posted, “Who I love don't love me very painful. Who make me feel empty go regret”
Addressing the issue of fake love, he stated, "If una no appreciate me I appreciate myself."
The singer also expressed his feelings of emptiness and longing for affection from those closest to him.
He attested to how he keeps losing those he loves and that his partner had ceased to publicly support him, post him, and pray for him as she often does in the past, which has left him feeling distant and neglected.
He inquired: “Everybody dey swear for me talking bad about me make una help me ask my wife say why she no dey pray for me again???
“Why she dey make me feel empty and she dey under me She no dey post me again She no dey happy with me again she don't appreciate all I do Make una help me ask her where she belongs to I no fit dey fear God still dey fear woman as you no dey show me love again why I no go look for another love all women na Blessings so value who value you.”
Despite this, the Zazu crooner reassured his fans that he remains committed to seeking love and companionship elsewhere.
He posted. “As you no love your man again another woman go love am pass the way you do self all women won die because of me why I go die because of only one woman I no fit get money con beg for love.
“2025, I won dey love those who love me make God bless all my lovers. If you no dey appreciate me again you're my enemy be that.”
Portable seeks love, cautions critics
In a bid to promote positivity, Portable challenged women who do not appreciate their husbands, urging them to share uplifting stories about their relationships and acknowledge the good deeds of their partners.
He said, "To the 'what has a husband done' group, you're only harming yourself. You can't do it alone. I love those who love me, but I'm feeling empty. I've been losing those who love me to people who don't. I love you and spend a lot on you, but you still question my responsibility.
“I implore the 'what has your husband done' group to learn to share the positive sides of what I've done and your part too. Try to share with singles the joys you receive as a married woman.
“To those who desire to ruin my home, you can't get me because I have sanctified myself. You won't succeed. I love myself and whoever loves me. Don't stress me and make me feel empty.”
Portable vows to take revenge on Tenumo
In addition to his controversial post, Portable reacted to an individual named Tenumo, who publicly shared Portable's phone number, resulting in an influx of unwanted calls.
He stated: “The boy go share my call number give everybody make them dey call me for what
I only help this boy why him dey stress me”
In his defence, Portable claimed he had invested over ₦20 million in Tenumo, only to be met with ingratitude. He vowed to take drastic measures to ensure Tenumo would face consequences for his actions.
“Me self don dey use police look for you fear my return... TERAMO why did you share my number out just because I call you make we settle... I don spend 20 million just because I only help you.. You get mind cast my call number them go cry for you beg for you I no go gree. I swe*r to God.”
