Assaulted Nigerian musician, Portable
Controversial singer, rapper, and songwriter, Habeeb Okikiola Oyegbile, popularly known as Portable, has called for prayers from his hospital bed.
Sharing images and messages with his fans in a recent Instagram post, the singer was captured lying on the hospital bed, accompanied by a brief note.
The note read: Feeling so much pain right now, just need your prayers. I dont want to die young.
He continued: Why do they want me to fall? If you spoil me for those who love me, you will die young. Surrounded by haters, with no one to cover me but God. SOS, save your soul.
The post was followed by a video showing the bandaged leg of the singer, from an injury he allegedly sustained in a recent altercation.
The video was captioned: Evil people want to see me fall, thank God, man is not God. (The Nation)
