Portable Responds to Ashabi Simple's Criticism Over Child Upkeep
Nigerian singer Habeeb Olalomi Badmus, popularly known as Portable, has fired back at his baby mama, Ashabi Simple, after she publicly called him out for sending only N200,000 for the upkeep of their two children. The controversy began when a phone conversation between Portable and Ashabi Simple's mother surfaced online, in which the elderly woman asked the singer to send money for the children's care.
Phone Conversation Reveals Request for Funds
In the leaked recording, Ashabi Simple's mother congratulated Portable on the birth of his baby and prayed for him and his family. However, Ashabi Simple later criticized the singer for sending N200,000, which she deemed insufficient for the children's needs. Portable responded by sharing a video in Yoruba, where he dragged his baby mama and made several allegations.
Portable Claims Love Is Gone, Warns Ashabi Simple
According to Portable, he no longer loves the mother of his two children and warned her never to come for him again. The Zazu crooner alleged that Ashabi Simple was using him to trend and claimed that a judge had instructed him to take care of his family, a responsibility he said he has been fulfilling. He stated, "The love is no longer there; leave me alone. You want to use me to trend, abi? I changed your lifestyle, and I was sent to prison, but the judge told me to go and take care of my family, and I am doing that."
Body-Shaming Remarks Spark Outrage
Portable went on to make derogatory remarks about Ashabi Simple's appearance, claiming that her tummy was bigger than her backside. He alleged that she had fibroids, which he claimed caused her stomach to protrude, and that she needed help tucking her stomach into her trousers when dressing. He said, "Your tummy is bigger than your backside. When she is dressing, they will help her tuck in her tummy. She has fibroids, which is the reason her tummy is bigger than her backside."
Social Media Reactions Divide Opinion
The video sparked mixed reactions on social media. User @official_hardik_vs commented, "You blind b4 when you nack her with the belle." @ojuoge_luxe_empire reacted, "This guy is mad body shaming a lady that has kids for you so u expect a body that has carried multiple pregnancies to be flat you are a retarded man." @micaddys noted, "Though She should be ashamed of herself and what so call her mother." @jamannyolori remarked, "Me, I know they put mouth for husband and wife matter ooo." @gbengaosuolalesamson asked, "Children?? So no be only one time pregnancy?" @emmanuelson_007 predicted, "They will soon come together." @bim_clothing_fabrics shared, "She actually come for him first."
Background: Ashabi Simple's Previous Allegations
This is not the first time Portable's baby mama has called him out. Legit.ng previously reported that Honey Berry, another baby mama, had made a video accusing Portable of beating her during pregnancy. She also stated that Portable used to beat his first wife, Bewaji, for taking sides with her. Honey Berry claimed she had no idea the singer was married when she became pregnant.
