Controversial singer Portable has appealed directly to President Bola Tinubu and his son, Seyi Tinubu, for increased payment following his participation in an APC rally in Lagos.
The rally, organised in support of the Tinubu-Shettima political ticket, was held at Onikan Stadium on Tuesday.
Portable participated in the event by engaging supporters and entertaining the crowd. Footage shared on social media later showed the singer lying on the floor and insisting that he wanted to see Tinubu and Seyi before leaving.
His manager, Babylov, was seen trying to persuade him to stand up and leave the venue.
According to reports, the singer fainted amid overcrowding at the gathering.
Portable said he had received payment for attending the rally but argued that the effort required and the conditions he endured deserved additional compensation.
