Controversial Nigerian singer Portable has mocked socialite Cubana Chief Priest following his loss in his primary election.
Kemi Filani reported that Cubana was vying for the APC’s ticket for Orsu/Orlu/Oru East federal constituency seat in the House of Representatives ahead of the 2027 general elections.
However, he lost to Canice More Nwachukwu, the incumbent for the constituency. Nwachukwu is serving his second term.
In a video captured online, Portable noted that the Chief Priest decamped to the APC, yet couldn’t get four votes in his village. He claimed he would have seen 4 billion votes if he were in his shoes.
Portable stated that if any political party gave him money, he would collect it.
“If APC, Tinubu or PDP gives me money, I’ll collect. Cubana Chief Priest, see your yeye; you ran to APC, and you only got four votes in your village. I would have seen 4 billion votes if I were in Cubana’s shoes”.
When Chief Priest wrote an open letter to President Tinubu following the life imprisonment of Nnamdi Kanu, Portable knocked him for not saying it to Tinubu’s face when they met. He informed Chief Priest that he can’t have power pass government and rebuked him for collecting money from Tinubu’s son, Seyi Tinubu.
Also, last year, the street singer challenged the socialite to a boxing match. Portable said he holds no grudge or ill feelings toward the socialite but was looking for ways to make more money. Making his monetary terms known, he added that he would fight Davido’s best friend for N100 million.
Last year, Portable had penned a heartfelt note to Chief Priest after he shared a video of him and his wife listening to one of Portable’s songs. Portable expressed gratitude to him as he praised the socialite.
In other news, Portable had made an announcement ahead of the 2027 elections. He revealed that he will only vote for any presidential candidate who gives him money and makes sure his fans vote for him.
The controversial singer had expressed disappointment after meeting Peter Obi in Benin City, Edo State, and he didn’t give him any money. He expressed belief that Tinubu would have given him money if he had the opportunity of meeting him.
Opening up about their meeting, he said he only received a handshake when he met the politician, who was flying economy, while he was flying first class.
The street singer had met Seyi Tinubu, who he stated had changed his life. Sending a message to Nigerians, he assured them that they would be better.
