“Please, I need money, I’m hustling. If you take your job seriously, you won’t join the protest. Don’t fight for Nigeria, fight for yourself."

Amid ongoing economic turmoil in Nigeria, controversial singer Portable has dismissed the planned nationwide protest against the rising cost of living, labeling the move as unnecessary.

This statement comes as a number of Nigerians prepare to demonstrate between August 1 and 10, 2024, in response to the escalating economic hardships under President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

In a recent Instagram story, Portable voiced his opinion against the protest, arguing that it reflects a lack of personal responsibility and ambition.

According to the singer, those intending to participate are merely idle and jobless, suggesting that their energy would be better spent pursuing personal growth and opportunities.

Portable explicitly warned that he should not be expected to perform at the protests, criticizing the protestors for their alleged laziness.

In his words; “It won’t be well with anyone who tells me to perform during the protest. Don’t you have a producer too? You should also collect the mic and join the protest too.

“Please, I need money, I’m hustling. If you take your job seriously, you won’t join the protest. Don’t fight for Nigeria, fight for yourself.

“Nigeria is okay, you are the one who is not okay. There is money in some places, you are the one who did not hustle or not loyal to your helper.

“You are the one who doesn’t make connections. There are people who can help, there are jobs. You are the one who is not working. Fight for yourself,” Portable said.
