Nigerian singer Portable has called on his fans for prayers and support after Ogun State authorities sealed his hotel and an uncompleted building. The structures were reportedly shut down due to alleged violations of planning regulations, leading to the detention of some of his workers and customers.
Taking to Instagram, Portable expressed his frustration and disappointment, stating that he had to cancel his London event to focus on resolving the issue. He assured his fans that his career would continue despite the setback and urged them to stand by him.
In his emotional post, the singer lamented that his efforts to help others were being frustrated, saying, "If you spoil me for those who love me, you will face the consequences." He maintained that he believes in divine intervention, adding that "any disappointment is a blessing."
This development follows reports that Portable allegedly clashed with Ogun State Planning & Development Permit Authority officials during an inspection of his bar’s surroundings. The incident reportedly led him to go into hiding before resurfacing online to seek public support.
The controversy has sparked reactions on social media, with some fans sympathizing with him while others questioned his approach to handling legal matters. The Ogun State government has yet to issue an official statement regarding Portable’s plea or potential next steps in resolving the matter.
