Fast-rising controversial singer, Portable (Dr Zeh), has come out to clear the air about him working with the All Progressives Congress (APC) and campaigning for the national ruling party ahead of this weekend's gubernatorial election in Osun state.
The singer wrote on his page that 4 years ago, he made a song for Senator Ademola Adeleke, the PDP candidate for the Osun state election in 2018, but he was however ignored as an upcoming artist.

However, for the 2022 Osun state election, he was contracted by the APC to sing and perform his hit song "Zazu" during their campaign, and people are complaining and criticising him for it.
Portable said he does music for a living, and that's his only means of fending for his family.

Singer Portable storms Osun to canvass for Oyetola, shares video
Legit.ng recalls reporting that popular street sensation Habeeb Okikiola, also known as Portable, had taken to social media to share a video of himself with the governor of Osun, Gboyega Oyetola, in Oshogbo ahead of the state's governorship election.
In the video, Portable was seen canvassing for the Osun state governor, who is contesting for another term in office under the APC.
The Zazu crooner in the video had flaunted to the camera a bag of money, revealing that he had been ‘bankrolled’. “Akoi Kudi, Akoi Grace, Akoi 4+4,” he said as he urged Osun state voters to vote for Oyetola and APC presidential candidate Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
