"Portable has used his daily drama to capture the attention of Nigerians globally, which gives him free publicity. The buzz from the news of these controversies and troubles has a positive impact on his music career because he's an unavoidable source of daily entertainment for the Nigerian community."

Asha urges Portable to continue with his style, but in a more calculated way. He advised that it is all about showbiz and that the Zazu singer is maximising the opportunity, but must tread with caution. He noted:

"I think he needs more trouble, so he can continue to trend, but the controversies should be "orchestrated" and "calculated. These are acceptable in showbiz, though I am not in support of his acting recklessly or irresponsibly."
