Portable attacked over alleged refusal to refund N3.5m for collaboration

Singer Portable suffered injuries after being attacked by some artists for allegedly refusing to refund the N3.5 million he was paid for a music collaboration.

On Monday, the singer posted a series of Instagram videos showing aggressive men yelling at him in an apartment.

Another video showed the altercation spreading to a bedroom.

Portable also posted a medical report from Lagos Island General Hospital, which he gave to the DPO of the Ajah police station.

While narrating the incident, the Zazu star claimed that he had a deal to feature on a song by two US-based artistes.

He said the artistes agreed to pay the sum of N2.5 million to his manager last year.

He, however, requested an additional N1 million, which was paid.

The 29-year-old claimed that despite shooting a video with them at Ajah, they allegedly attacked him and demanded a refund.

He said that about 40 men with dreads jumped on him and beat him, causing him to sustain an eye injury.

Portable who spoke in pidgin English and Yoruba said: “Eyin fans mi I don come back from hospital o, won ni mo ti no injury loju o. So those people because of say I help una now una say una won feature me, na two dem be.”

“They wan feature me from America. Una give my manager N2.5 million. As my manager give me the money, na last year dem give me money this year I talk say price don high o.

“Ewo I do the video for them o after they paid me N1 million again. As I reach there na him dey attack me say I must refund o.

“Won gbe mi kuro n be mi mo nkankan o, awon omo ota gan no won sare wo ni nu ile.”
