Controversial singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has stirred social media buzz after claiming he spends more on fashion than Afrobeats superstar Wizkid.
In a recent video, the “Zazoo Zeh” crooner boldly compared their wardrobe choices, stating, “Wizkid only wears singlets. I spend more on clothes than he does.” He elaborated that he buys complete outfit sets from cities like London, Canada, and the United States, and touted his background as a tailor and fashion stylist.
“I’m a fashion stylist. I’m a tailor. That’s my handwork. Brands used me as a model. As I dey buy them, they give,” Portable added.
The comparison quickly sparked reactions online, with users debating the essence of style, spending habits, and celebrity lifestyles. Some pointed out that a simple singlet worn by Wizkid could be more expensive than an entire designer outfit, while others humorously reminded Portable of his frequent legal troubles.
Comments ranged from, “There are singlets that are more expensive than many designer clothings,” to quips like, “He will soon cry for police station again.”
Portable’s statement is consistent with his reputation for making headline-grabbing, often unfiltered comments about himself and other celebrities. While Wizkid is known for his minimalist, often laid-back style, Portable frequently appears in flamboyant and coordinated outfits, using fashion as a key part of his public persona.
The singer’s declaration has once again turned the spotlight on the intersections of music, fashion, and celebrity culture in Nigeria—and sparked yet another playful debate among fans.
