Controversial Nigerian singer Portable has publicly confronted Nollywood actor Odunlade Adekola over a viral video featuring Portable’s fourth baby mama, Ashabi. The video, which shows Ashabi and Odunlade Adekola in a seemingly playful interaction, has sparked a heated reaction from Portable, who issued a stern warning to the actor.
In an Instagram post, Portable expressed his disapproval, stating that he found the video disrespectful and unacceptable. “Odunlade, respect yourself. Don’t let this turn into something else,” the singer said. His outburst has fueled discussions among fans and observers, many of whom are debating the appropriateness of his reaction.
Odunlade Adekola, a celebrated Nollywood actor known for his comedic roles, responded calmly, urging Portable to address his concerns privately. Adekola clarified that the video was part of a professional engagement and had no personal undertones. “It’s unfortunate that this is being misunderstood. It’s all work, nothing more,” he explained in a brief statement.
The video in question shows Ashabi, who recently welcomed a child with Portable, appearing alongside Adekola in what many have described as a harmless skit. However, Portable’s reaction suggests deeper personal sensitivities, leading to a public clash between the two entertainers.
Fans of both Portable and Odunlade Adekola have taken to social media to weigh in on the situation. While some support Portable’s protective stance over Ashabi, others have criticized him for escalating a minor issue. A Twitter user remarked, “Portable needs to separate personal life from entertainment. Odunlade is just doing his job.” Another commented, “Odunlade handled this with class. Portable should learn from him.”
Ashabi has yet to make a public statement regarding the controversy. However, sources close to her revealed that she was caught off guard by the singer’s reaction and hopes the matter will be resolved amicably.
This incident adds to Portable’s long history of controversies, including his outspoken behavior and frequent clashes with fellow entertainers. Despite his track record, the singer continues to enjoy a loyal fanbase, thanks to his raw talent and unconventional approach to music.
As the drama unfolds, fans and observers hope for a resolution that fosters mutual respect between the two stars. Meanwhile, the video continues to garner attention online, serving as a reminder of how personal relationships can intersect with the demands of the entertainment industry.
