Portable's Clash with Jehovah's Witnesses: A Controversial Encounter
Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, widely known as Portable, recently ignited controversy after an altercation with a Christian outreach group. Known for his connections with various religious leaders, including pastors and Muslim figures, Portable's frustrations boiled over when a group of Jehovah's Witnesses gathered around his bar and restaurant in Ogun State, delivering sermons that he found uncomfortable. A live video of the incident emerged on Sunday, August 25, sparking widespread discussion on social media.
During the confrontation, Portable expressed his displeasure with the evangelists, who criticized his lifestyle and labeled him the "prodigal son" due to his extravagant spending habits. The singer felt that their presence and message were intrusive, leading him to order his crew to chase the group away from his establishment. This unexpected clash has raised eyebrows and fueled debates about the boundaries of religious outreach and personal space.
In their attempt to engage Portable, the evangelists urged him to reconsider his way of living and turn to God. However, the singer's response to their criticisms has left many questioning the appropriateness of such public confrontations. As discussions continue to unfold online, the incident highlights the tension between personal beliefs and public expressions of faith, especially in a diverse society like Nigeria.
