Fast rising Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has threatened to kill whoever wins the 2022 Headies award ahead him, after bagging two nominations.
The ‘Zazuu Zeh’ crooner in a video posted on his Instagram page on Wednesday, said he would kill whoever pips him to the awards.
Speaking in Yoruba, the controversial artist, said his single, ‘Zazuu Zeh,’ is far popular than other songs nominated.
Portable also claimed to be more widely known on the street compared to his fellow nominees.
It is unlikely that the other nominees in the Rookie of the Year and the Street Hop song categories will take Portable’s threat serious.
Portable will be hoping to pip other newbies to the Rookie of the Year prize, while he would be facing stiff competition from other street jams for the Street Hop single of the year.
Portable will, however, have to wait till September 4, to know if he will be walking away with a plaque or making other plans.
