Portable Reveals His Reason for Slapping a Preacher
Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola Badmus, popularly known as Portable, recently took to social media to explain why he slapped a preacher outside his bar. The incident, which occurred a few weeks ago, quickly caught public attention due to the controversial nature of the confrontation.
The incident was broadcast live on Instagram, where Portable was seen confronting and slapping the preacher, who had come to preach near his bar. Portable accused the man of disrupting his business, which led to a heated exchange outside the bar. The video sparked widespread criticism from fans and religious leaders.
In response to the backlash, Portable addressed the situation on his Instagram account on September 16, 2024. He revealed that his reaction was influenced by a previous encounter involving his sister. According to Portable, his sister had been attacked by a man pretending to be a pastor just weeks before the bar incident.
Portable explained that he believed the preacher might have been part of an attempt to set him up. He said that if the man had been a genuine pastor, he would not have slapped him. “If he was truly a man of God, may God forgive me for my actions,” Portable stated.
He concluded his post by admitting his imperfections and apologizing for his behavior. Portable acknowledged that he acted out of frustration and promised that he would have handled the situation differently if he had known the preacher’s true identity.
