Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has called on the government to ban prank videos following a recent altercation at Port Harcourt International Airport.
Portable was reacting to a viral video that shows him dressed in beige attire and attempting to confront an unidentified individual amid a crowd of onlookers and airport personnel.
Security guards in blue uniforms can be seen restraining the singer, pulling him away from the scene and toward a waiting vehicle in the airport’s parking area.
The 53-second clip captures chaotic pushing and shoving, with one participant appearing barefoot and another wielding what looks like a belt or whip, as bystanders gather to watch the commotion unfold.
The incident occurred on Sunday, according to multiple reports.
In a video response shared on his Instagram page on Monday, Portable broke his silence, claiming he was the victim of an attack by “death pranksters,” individuals who stage extreme pranks involving fake deaths for online content.
