Work Harder Instead of Protesting – Portable tells Nigerians

Amid Nigeria’s economic challenges, controversial singer Portable has criticized the upcoming nationwide protest planned for August 1 to 10, 2024.

The protest, driven by groups reacting to the rising cost of living under President Bola Tinubu’s administration, has gained significant public attention.

In a recent Instagram story, Portable expressed his disapproval of the protest, labeling those involved as “jobless.”

Known for his direct approach, Portable stated that he would not be available for performances during the protest and suggested that those who are urging him to participate should instead engage in the protest themselves.

Portable characterized the planned protest as a result of laziness, suggesting that people who are truly dedicated to their jobs would not be involved.

He emphasized that people should focus on personal improvement rather than protesting, arguing that there are opportunities for those who are diligent and connected.

He further criticized those who blame external factors for their lack of success, stating that the real issue lies in individual effort and connections.

According to Portable, Nigeria is doing fine, and individuals should strive to improve their own circumstances rather than participating in protests.

He urged people to work hard and seek out opportunities rather than looking for external reasons for their struggles.
