Nigerian social media commentator Verydarkman (VDM), whose real name is Martins Otse, has weighed in on singer Portable's crisis with the Ogun state government.
Legit.ng earlier reported that Nigerian street-pop star Habeeb Okikiola aka Portable Zazu, on Wednesday, February 19, hinted at plans to turn himself in to the police.
This was after the Ogun state police command declared Portable wanted for allegedly leading a violent attack on government officials carrying out their lawful duties.

After he was declared wanted by the police, the Brotherhood singer stated that he needed God to save his life, claiming he was under spiritual attack.
He further alleged that he had been hospitalised for days while praying for God to show him mercy for his children’s sake.
Verydarkman speaks on Portable’s case
While some of Portable's fans and fellow colleagues have called on the Ogun government to show leniency, Verydarkman thinks otherwise.
The online critic shared videos of the controversial moments when the singer was involved in violent incidents, including the altercation with DJ Chicken, the pastor he slapped outside his bar, and the man he assaulted at Fela’s shrine, among others.
Verydarkman criticised Portable Zazu for his actions and noted that he must now face the authorities for his past behaviour.
He also condemned the musician's fans and supporters. He accused them of enabling the artist by making excuses for his violent behaviour when he made headlines for assaulting others.

"I understand how people feels on what he did. No matter how it is we still have to plead on his behalf. How many of you guys call davido out when he hurl insults on the commissioner of police. Majority supported him which is wrong so throwback video of what VDM posted makes you all hate him.
"I’m not portable fan tho but let plead on his behalf."
jayempire24_ reacted:
"Let him learn how to respect people small then after we pity for him for the sake of mostly his innocent wife and children."

"Even if portable is violent enough or stubborn. He didn’t kill anyone or stole anything. So why will VDM say they shouldn’t beg for portable? Justice for portable."
What Portable allegedly did to government officials
Legit.ng earlier reported that Portable was in trouble and likely aware of the gravity of the situation.
A popular influencer on Elon Musk’s X accused the musician of attacking government officials who were assigned to work at his location.
The influencer, in a lengthy tweet, narrated how the Tony Montana hitmaker allegedly assaulted the agents and was in hiding.
