Habeeb Okikiola, also known as Portable, a controversial artist, has boasted about his fortune, claiming to be a low-key millionaire with over 30 properties distributed across Lagos and Ogun states.
The ‘Zazu’ singer also stated that he is involved in several humanitarian endeavours since the more he donates to the underprivileged, the more wealthy he becomes.
Portable said on the most recent episode of the Afrobeats Podcast presented by Adesope Olajide that the music industry is highly profitable. He compared “music money” to a financial ritual.
He said, “I’m a superstar, man of the people. People come to me for aid, and I have to give them because the more I give them, the more I blow.
“I have a lot of money. The amount of money I spray… I’m not normal, but I get 30 mansions. I have houses in Abule-Egba, Ikeja, Sango-Otta, and Abeokuta. I just bought the houses down because of tomorrow. Nobody knows that I’m the owner of those houses.”
He claimed to be wealthier than most of his industry colleagues, alleging that most of them flaunt “fake lifestyles” on social media.
