Music promoter Yusuf Adebola Adepitan, widely known as Ijoba Danku, has publicly called out singer and record label owner Habeeb Olalomi Badmus, popularly called Portable, over an alleged debt and defamation of character. In a video shared on his Instagram page, Ijoba Danku issued a stern warning to the Zeh Nation boss, accusing him of failing to honor a paid performance and spreading false accusations.
Accusations of Debt and Defamation
According to Ijoba Danku, Portable received N1 million for a show but did not show up. He also claimed that Portable has been maligning his name, calling him a scammer, while the singer is the real scammer. The promoter further alleged that during Portable’s issues with his baby mama, Ashabi Simple, Ijoba Danku was the one who bailed him out at the police station when he was arrested. Despite this, Portable has continued to insult him online, even after previously coming to beg for forgiveness after their fallout. Ijoba Danku also claimed Portable insulted his wife and called him a thief.
Warning and Demand for Refund
In the video, Ijoba Danku issued a stern warning, saying he was coming after the singer and would deal with him. He also insulted Portable’s father in Yoruba and demanded a refund of the money paid for the show. The video has generated buzz among fans of both the promoter and the singer.
Fan Reactions
Reacting to the video, fans called on both men to settle their differences in a boxing ring instead of on social media. Some said the promoter knows Portable’s house and should confront him directly, while others suggested he go to Odogwu Bar for the fight. They also mocked Ijoba Danku for dragging the matter online again and described Portable as ungrateful for his actions. A few added that both men are supporters of the All Progressives Congress, noting the irony that they are now at loggerheads.
