Portable’s tough guy era takes a sudden pause. A viral video making rounds online has captured Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, in a very unexpected moment, handcuffed, emotional, and crying like a baby inside a police station.

The 18-second clip shows the usually loud and fearless street-pop star looking visibly shaken, pleading and asking for forgiveness, a sharp contrast from his usual aggressive online persona.

‎Why Was Portable Arrested?

Portable’s arrest reportedly followed an assault complaint filed by his baby mama, Ashabi. The incident allegedly occurred on January 1, 2026, at Portable’s bar in Ogun State, after a heated dispute between both parties.

‎By January 11, 2026, the situation escalated into a full-blown police case, landing the singer in handcuffs and straight into viral embarrassment.

Online Reactions

As expected, social media wasted no time reacting. Many users mocked the sudden switch from street confidence to public tears, joking that reality finally caught up with him. Others weren’t surprised at all, pointing out that Portable seems more familiar with police cells than chart-topping hits.

‎Still, some fans believe the drama won’t last long, insisting that celebrity privilege will eventually see him walk free, just like previous encounters with law enforcement.

Just when Nigerians were still dragging Seun Kuti’s viral statement about “If poor Nigerians behaved like rich Nigerians, Nigeria wouldn’t survive 48 hours,” fresh wahala entered the timeline.

‎This time, it involved Anthony Joshua, an accident scene, and a missing phone.

‎His Phone Went Missing — What We Know So Far

‎According to Anthony Joshua’s uncle, the boxing superstar lost his phone at the scene of the accident. Almost immediately, social media jumped to conclusions, with many assuming the phone was stolen while people were trying to help him.

‎And just like that, online sympathy turned into online suspicion.

‎From Helping Hands to Helping Pockets?

‎The situation quickly sparked debates. People began questioning whether accident scenes in Nigeria are truly about help or if they sometimes double as unofficial shopping hours.

Anthony Joshua phone missing

Adding fuel to the fire, another individual shared a similar experience, claiming that after his own accident, bystanders not only helped him but also helped themselves to items inside his car, including goods meant for a client.

‎Someone said: “We support you, but small appreciation must drop.” 😭

‎Internet Reactions: Shocked but Not Surprised

‎Online reactions were loud, sarcastic, and painfully familiar. Many users joked that accident scenes in Nigeria can feel like Black Friday, while others described it as people collecting “sympathy tax.” Some even laughed it off, saying losing a phone was better than losing an entire car interior.

‎The jokes flew, but the undertone was clear, people weren’t shocked.

‎Correction: Was the Phone Really Stolen?

‎In the middle of all the dragging and cruise, someone made a comment, ‎”There is no confirmed evidence that Anthony Joshua’s phone was stolen”.

‎What is confirmed is that the phone was missing or lost at the scene.

Anthony Joshua phone stolen rumor

‎No CCTV. No eyewitness.

‎One thing is certain though:

‎In Nigeria, an accident scene doesn’t end with first aid it comes with hot takes, sarcasm, and full-blown discourse.

Social media lit up after Sandra gifted Peller $1,000 during a live stream to help him repair his damaged car.

‎In the video, Peller appeared emotional, offering prayers and blessings in return, repeatedly pointing out that $1,000 translates to nearly ₦2 million in Nigeria. Sandra, unfazed by the excitement, calmly reassured him that she would fulfil her promise.

‎How Peller’s Car Ended Up Wrecked

‎Peller was recently involved in a car accident that reportedly left his vehicle badly damaged. The incident followed personal issues with his lover, turning a relationship disagreement into full-blown mechanical wahala.

‎“Let Nigerians Help Him” — The Suggestion That Changed the Mood

‎Things took another turn when an X user suggested that Nigerians should come together to help Peller fix his car.

‎That single suggestion was enough to flip the atmosphere from sympathy to sarcasm.

‎Internet Mood: “Support Who?” 😂

‎Many users felt the idea made little sense, arguing that Peller is financially capable of fixing the car himself  without public assistance. Others questioned why Nigerians should be asked to contribute toward repairing a luxury car damaged through personal actions, especially given the current economic realities.

‎A large number of commenters also pointed out that there are far more urgent cases deserving of public support, with some jokingly reminding everyone of how little money they themselves are starting the year with. ‎In short, the internet was not convinced.

‎Kind Gesture, But the Debate Remains 🤔

‎While Sandra’s gesture was widely seen as generous and kind, many felt the situation quickly crossed into unnecessary online drama, with sympathy blending into entertainment.

‎A trending video on X has once again put Zlatan Ibile at the centre of social media conversation, and this time, it involves street vibes, loud hailing, and dollar notes.

‎In the clip, the Nigerian music star was seen driving when a group of street boys suddenly surrounded his car, hailing him passionately and calling him all kinds of sweet, confidence-boosting names.

‎And if you know Lagos, once the hailing starts… something must happen.


‎$200, Street Turned Dance Floor 💃🕺


‎Zlatan, clearly amused by the attention, reached out and brought out $200, about  300,000 Nigerian Naira handing it over to the boys.

‎Others had issues with the gesture itself:

‎Then came the deep thinkers, ready to spoil the cruise:

‎Just like that, a 28-second happy clip turned into a national conversation.

Kind Gesture or Lagos Wahala on Display? 🤔

‎For some people, the video was simply:

‎A generous celebrity moment.

‎A street-favourite showing love.

‎A harmless act that brought smiles.

‎For others, it exposed: Unemployment, street begging culture, and the uncomfortable state of the economy

‎Same video, ‎different interpretations.


‎Zlatan Still Remains “Street Certified” 👑

‎Regardless of the debates, one thing most people agreed on is that Zlatan has always been connected to the streets.

‎From his music to moments like this, he remains a celebrity many feel understands everyday struggle even if his $200 caused mixed emotions online.

What’s your take?


‎‎Pure kindness? Wrong method, right intention? Or just another normal day in Lagos?

The post “If Poor Nigerians Behave Like the Rich, Nigeria Won’t Last 48 Hours” — Seun Kuti Sparks Debate After Anthony Joshua Accident appeared first on X Wahala.

]]>

Social media is on fire after Seun Kuti shared a 3-minute video reacting to reports of Anthony Joshua’s accident in December 2025,  an incident that tragically claimed the lives of two of Joshua’s friends. The boxing star was later flown abroad for further medical treatment.

While many Nigerians were still processing the sad news, Seun Kuti dropped a statement that immediately split opinions online.

The Statement That Shook the Internet

In his video, Seun Kuti said:

“If poor people in Nigeria behave the same way rich people behave, there will be no Nigeria in 48 hours.”

Then he asked a question that made people uncomfortable:

“How many rich people stopped on the road to help Anthony Joshua?”

No insults. No shouting. Just one statement that landed like a bomb.

What Happened to Anthony Joshua?

According to reports, Anthony Joshua and his friends were involved in an accident after hitting a parked truck. Ordinary Nigerians around the area reportedly rushed to help before emergency services arrived.

Seun Kuti Anthony Joshua accident

Sadly, two lives were lost, while Joshua was later flown abroad for advanced medical care.

Seun Kuti Anthony Joshua accident

For many people, the quick response from everyday Nigerians became the heart of the discussion.

Then I began to wonder what Nigeria would look like if 80% of its population were rich

Seun Kuti’s argument raised a bigger question:

If Nigeria were made up of mostly wealthy people,
Would they have stopped to help?
Or would they have driven past with tinted windows and flashing lights?

That question alone was enough to turn the comment section into a full-blown debate arena.

Nigerians React: Sense, Sarcasm, and Gbas Gbos 💬

Some users felt Seun Kuti’s example missed the mark:

“This is a bad example. Poor people help more because they are everywhere, especially in places without diplomats or high-profile presence. They’re simply the first to arrive.”

Seun Kuti Anthony Joshua accident

Others strongly agreed with him:

“True talk. Some rich people don’t care about anybody.”

Then came the counter-argument:

Nigeria rich vs poor argument

But one comment summed up the emotion behind Seun’s message:

Nigeria rich vs poor argument

So… Who’s Really Keeping Nigeria Alive?

At the end of the day, Seun Kuti wasn’t just talking about Anthony Joshua.

He was talking about empathy, class, and the uncomfortable truth that when things go wrong on Nigerian roads, it’s usually ordinary people who run toward danger — not away from it.

Whether you agree with him or not, one thing is certain:

The conversation is not ending anytime soon.

What do you think?

Was Seun Kuti speaking hard truth? Or was this just another case of wrong example, right message?

In a league where fines are tossed around like assists in a Steph Curry highlight reel, Anthony Edwards has just added another “L” to his wallet, this time, for something he said, or more accurately… screamed.

And no, it wasn’t to an opponent. It was to the entire Lakers crowd.

The comment heard around the arena

After lighting up the court, Ant decided to light up the fans, literally yelling, “My d— bigger than yours” like he was in a rap battle.

The NBA, being the family-friendly institution it is, hit him with a clean $50,000 fine, proving once again that freedom of speech in the league isn’t exactly free, it’s market-priced.

Anthony Edwards "D" comment

This ain’t his first “D” offense

Let’s be honest, this isn’t the first time Anthony’s d-word has cost him. If his trash talk was a Netflix series, we’d be in Season 3 by now.

Anthony Edwards Lakers comment fine

Edwards has made a habit of crossing the NBA’s imaginary line, and every time, the league comes through with a fine like a disappointed school principal — only this time, it feels like the principal’s watching from Twitter.

Big confidence, Bigger consequences

Say what you want, but you can’t deny one thing: Anthony Edwards has confidence in abundance. Maybe too much.

He plays like a superstar and talks like a stand-up comic at an uncensored roast. But while fans eat it up like popcorn, the NBA front office is clearly not laughing.

Anthony Edwards Lakers comment fine

If confidence were currency, Ant would be able to buy the Timberwolves, not just play for them. Unfortunately, in the real world, he’s spending real money for very personal comparisons.

Shut up and dribble? Ant says nah

The league would love it if players just balled and kept their mouths shut, but Edwards is built different.

Anthony Edwards Lakers comment fine

He’s got that old school swagger, the kind that makes him entertaining, unpredictable, and a walking headline. Whether that’s good or bad? Depends on who’s writing the check.

Spoiler: it’s always him.

Final whistle

At the end of the day, Edwards probably doesn’t care. The fine won’t break him, and let’s face it — it probably boosted his street cred.

If you ever wondered what happens when chaos meets confusion in a boxing ring, wonder no more, Speed Darlington aka Akpi just gave us a front-row seat to a legendary beatdown, courtesy of Zazuu Zeh himself, Portable.

The beef that boiled over

What started as random online gbas gbos between two of Nigeria’s most eccentric entertainers ended in boxing gloves and broken egos.

The so-called “celebrity boxing match” was supposed to settle the beef, but what we got was more of a one-sided demolition job than a fair fight.

Portable came in swinging like he was fighting for fuel subsidy, while Akpi? Well… Akpi fought like Wi-Fi with one bar signal struggling to connect.

The punch that silenced instagram live 🥊

According to ringside witnesses, the moment Portable landed that transformational uppercut, Akpi paused like a man who suddenly remembered he left beans on the fire.

Portable vs Speed Darlington fight

People claim he dislocated his shoulder, but based on how quickly he sat down to re-evaluate life, it looked more like he dislocated his destiny.

Portable vs Apki fight

Internet reacts: Akpi go home

Netizens wasted no time in turning the aftermath into a meme fest. Some were disappointed, others were confused, and many just wanted their data back.

But one thing everyone agreed on? Portable won the match

Portable vs Speed Darlington fight

This wasn’t boxing. This was spiritual deliverance. The kind of flogging that makes a man think twice before clapping back on social media.

Heres the video.

Daniel Regha Weighs In (Of Course)

In typical Daniel Regha fashion, he called it out for what it was: unserious.

Portable vs Apki fight

But to be fair, when two grown men settle beef by entering a ring to trade punches instead of tracks, maybe society has taken a permanent seat in clown mode.

Akpi’s Legacy on Life Support

Speed Darlington has always marched to the beat of his own chaotic drum, but this might just be the humbling he never knew he needed.

Akpi fans are now in hiding, deleting tweets, and looking for someone else to stan before the next morning.

Portable vs Speed Darlington fight

Who won the match?

Portable. No argument. Not only did he win physically, but he’s also now the certified Minister of Chaos and Punches.

Portable vs Speed Darlington fight

Whatever PR stunt this was, he turned it into a full-on “Zazuu Championship” belt claim. We don’t know what’s next—maybe Portable vs VDM? Or Portable vs Taxes?

Either way, lesson learned: don’t beef a man who performs shirtless in winter and sings like he’s arguing with the beat.

Davido has done it again—and this time, he’s dropped an album so hot it practically cooked the Apple Music charts. The man woke up, dropped “5IVE”, and before fans could say “who dey breeet?”, all 17 tracks were chilling at the top of Apple Music Nigeria like it’s their birthright.

From track 1 to 17, he didn’t just dominate the charts; he colonized it. The only thing missing was a Davido national anthem to go with it.

Davido 5IVE album on Apple Music

Davido’s 5th studio album – but who is counting?

Let’s be honest when Davido said “5IVE IS ALIVE”, we didn’t know he meant the album would be this alive. Each track sounds like he’s been bottling up good vibes since “Timeless” and decided to pour everything out with full premium energy.

Whether it’s the emotional depth, dancefloor bangers, or the smooth blend of afrobeats with sweet melodies—“5IVE” delivers with the precision of a Chelsea keeper during warm-up (not matchday, please).

OBO the professor – schooling the industry one hit at a time

The fans didn’t hold back either. They basically crowned him the Dean of Sweet Gbedu University, suggesting some of his colleagues (no names, but you know who) need to lock themselves in the studio with him for a week just to learn the basics of how to produce an album that hits this hard.

Davido 5IVE album

Let’s not lie, if Davido opened a music tutorial class today, e go full. Producers, hypemen, even TikTok dancers will apply.

Collab heaven: Omah Lay and others came correct

Among the fan favorites is the track with Omah Lay. But honestly, every song on the album is carrying its weight like it paid for a gym membership.

Davido 5IVE album

If you’re picking a favorite on “5IVE,” just know it might change every 48 hours. It’s that good.

Wizkid FC and Burna Gang? They showed love too

Even fans from “the other camps” (Wizkid FC and Burna Boy loyalists) had to drop their grudges and show respect.

Davido 5IVE album

Some even crossed over momentarily just to vibe. Because when the music is this good, even fan wars take a tea break.

One fan said, “I’m a Wizkid fan, but Davido is the GOAT. No debate today.” And honestly, that says a lot.

The verdict

Davido is not just singing for the charts anymore; he’s solidifying his legacy.

From being called the “rich kid with vibes” to now being seen as a global music heavyweight, OBO has truly earned his stripes.

“5IVE” is not just an album, it’s a cultural moment. A gentle reminder that in an industry where consistency is scarce, Davido remains the guy who shows up and shows out.

If there’s one thing Nigerians love more than a good hit song, it’s a good celebrity face-off, especially when it involves two of our most “colorful” entertainers.

This week, Terry G, the self acclaimed Akpako Master, drew a line in the sand and declared: “Comparing me to Portable is disrespectful.” And the internet? Oh, the internet went wild!

Terry G the man with melody

Let’s not get it twisted Terry G wasn’t just any street artist. He was the minister of madness, the evangelist of eccentricity, but most importantly, the man could actually make music.

From “Free Madness” to those explosive features with 2Shotz, Terry G dominated an era where even your church keyboardist was bumping to his beats.

He had chaos, yes bells, horns, whistles, but it was well-composed chaos. You could tell there was method to his madness. And guess what? People still play his music 10 plus years later.

Portable: the walking headline

Now let’s be honest: Portable is pure entertainment. He’s the algorithm’s favorite child chaotic, unpredictable, and louder than a generator in third gear.

But here’s the catch his chaos is uncut and unfiltered. While Terry G gave us madness with rhythm, Portable gives us madness with… microphone. His drama is viral, his music debatable, and his existence? A TikTok editor’s dream.

So is it really fair to compare?

Fans weigh in: Zidane vs Matic vibes

X users did not hold back. Some said comparing the two is like placing Zinedine Zidane next to Matic. Others acknowledged the comparison, but not in music, in madness levels only.

One user went philosophical, blaming the state of the society: “In a saner society, Terry G was Portable. But society is out of control now, so Portable had to double it.” And honestly? That might be the realest take yet.

Legacy vs viral fame

Terry G had club bangers, street anthems, and tracks that still slap harder than Lagos traffic. Portable? He has engagement. He’s the moment. But is he the memory? That’s the question fans are still debating.

One thing’s for sure, if this was a musical royal rumble, Terry G is walking in with a bell on his neck, and Portable is showing up in boxers and a megaphone. Two kings of chaos. Different reigns. Same kingdom.

Final bells

Whether you’re Team Terry G or Team Portable, you have to admit, Nigerian music would be boring without these two.

And honestly, only in Nigeria can the phrase “Free Madness Part 4” be considered a cultural contribution.

The post Nigerians Say They’re Tired of Nonsense — Then Give Peller 10 Million TikTok Followers appeared first on X Wahala.

]]>
Peller, the TikTok sensation who some think is all vibes and zero depth, is one of most followed content creator on TikTok in Naija, clocking over 10 million followers.

And as expected, Nigerians didn’t just witness this quietly. Nope. They brought noise, chaos, grace analysis, and insults like it’s election season.

From unfollowed to unstoppable

Just a few days ago, the same Peller was getting unfollowed faster than a scammer on social media.

People were dragging him, trolling him, and accusing him of being the high priest of “nonsense content.”

But somehow, the guy did a 360 with divine speed and now sits comfortably on a 10M throne.

Peller TikTok followers

That’s not grace, that’s grace on steroids.

Not everyone is clapping

While his fans are busy popping virtual champagne, a section of X is confused, triggered, and borderline furious.

Peller TikTok followers

You know Nigerians once someone starts succeeding in a way they don’t understand, it’s either “he bought followers” or “Nigerians just like nonsense.”

Apparently, having 10 million followers means over 10 million people found his content interesting, and for some people, that’s a bigger mystery than the Bermuda Triangle.

Peller TikTok followers

The “content” controversy

Let’s be honest: Peller’s content isn’t Shakespeare. It’s not even Zebrudaya. It’s a mix of slapstick humor, unfiltered randomness, and the kind of skits that make you question your own intelligence for laughing. But guess what? It works.

He’s cracked the code of TikTok virality and if that code involves fake falls, dancing in agbada, or shouting “Wahala be like bicycle,” then hey, more power to him.

Ten million strong or suspicious?

Some eagle-eyed users pointed out that he had close to 12 million followers before, so how come it’s now 10 million and trending like it’s new? Well, this is Nigeria. Math is optional, and vibes are king.
