“God gave me grace,” Portable blasts Headies after losing out again

Controversial Nigerian street-hop singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has reignited his feud with the organisers of The Headies Awards after failing to secure a win at the recently concluded 17th edition of the event.

The prestigious award ceremony, held last week at the Landmark Event Centre in Lagos, attracted numerous A-list celebrities and industry stakeholders.

However, Portable, who was noticeably absent from the winners’ list, took to social media to vent his frustration.

In a series of Instagram stories, the Zazoo Zeh crooner accused the organisers of snubbing him once again, claiming the awards were being given to artistes who “haven’t blown.”

“They no give us award, but God gives us grace,” he wrote. “Now they’re deceiving you. They carry awards and give to people who don’t blow. We blow inside the hole (Konga); people know us. You dey mad ni?”
