Controversial singer, Habeeb Okikiola, well known as Portable has claimed that those who are planning to participate in the planned nation-wide protest have refused to work despite available opportunities.

He spoke as various Nigerian groups plan a nationwide protest scheduled from August 1 to 10.

Speaking in a video shared on Instagram, Portable emphasised that there is no reason to protest, that the country is okay and that those who are aiming to protest are the ones who are not okay.

Portable in the video, however, urged his fans to focus on their personal growth rather than engaging in protests.

He could be heard saying, “It won’t be well with anyone who tells me to perform during the protest. Don’t you have a producer too? You should also collect the mic and join the protest too. Please, I need money, I’m hustling. If you take your job seriously, you won’t join the protest. Don’t fight for Nigeria, fight for yourself.

“Nigeria is okay, you are the one who is not okay. There is money in some places, you are the one who did not hustle or is not loyal to your helper.

”You are the one who doesn’t make connections. There are people who can help, there are jobs. You are the ones who are not working. Fight for yourself.”

Dailyeconomy on Friday, July 26, reported that the Abuja Police Command urged residents to be law-abiding while protesting and deployed 4,200 police officers to ensure security and maintain order ahead of a planned nationwide protest.
