Port Harcourt Airport Drama: Portable Explains His Side of Recent Viral Scuffle
In typical dramatic fashion, Nigerian street-hop sensation Portable has come forward to clear the air about his latest viral moment – this time, a heated confrontation at the Port Harcourt International Airport that set social media abuzz.
The Zeh Nation frontman, known for his eccentric personality and hit songs, claims he was actually the victim of harassment while waiting for his ride after landing for a scheduled performance. In a series of candid videos shared online, Portable painted a picture of an increasingly tense situation that unfolded outside the airport terminal.
According to the “Zazuu” crooner, what began as a simple wait for his pickup quickly turned hostile when a group of persistent commercial drivers approached him. Despite politely declining their offers for a ride, the situation escalated as the drivers allegedly began recording him and hurling taunts, including calling him “stingy” for not giving them money.
The tension reached its peak when Portable, who had initially tried to maintain his cool, finally reached his breaking point. In his defense, he emphasized that his reaction was aimed solely at the provocative drivers, not airport security or other passengers. An immigration officer reportedly witnessed the entire scene unfold.
In a particularly intriguing twist, Portable addressed footage showing him brandishing what appeared to be a charm, explaining it was merely meant to frighten off his harassers. He even recounted telling the persistent drivers to “go and meet President Tinubu” if they were seeking handouts, warning that disrespecting the president could lead to consequences.
This latest incident adds to Portable’s growing list of public confrontations, coming just weeks after another widely circulated video showed him in an altercation in Lagos’ Ikeja area. As the story continues to develop, one thing remains clear – there’s never a dull moment when it comes to the controversial street-hop star.
