Nigerian musician Portable emerged victorious in the highly anticipated celebrity boxing match against Speed Darlington, held Saturday night at the Balmoral Events Centre in Lagos. The event, dubbed ‘Chaos in the Rings,’ saw an abrupt conclusion when Speed Darlington was unable to continue after sustaining a broken arm during the first round.

The match, fueled by a prior dispute over a N500,000 performance fee offered to Portable by Darlington, ended in Portable’s favor as his opponent failed to appear for the second round. This win marks Portable’s second celebrity boxing victory, following his previous triumph against actor Charles Okocha four months prior. The outcome has generated significant discussion and interest within the Nigerian entertainment scene.

Nigerian Afrobeats superstar, Davido, recently disclosed his and his wife, Chioma’s, decision to postpone further childbearing. In a recent episode of “Ride Along With Darryl,” the artist, a father of five, cited Chioma’s professional aspirations as the primary reason for this decision.

Davido emphasized that Chioma deserves a break to pursue her career ambitions, including opening a restaurant and launching a spice line, following the birth of their twins in 2023. This pause comes a year after the tragic loss of their first son, Ifeanyi. The couple’s decision highlights a growing emphasis on prioritizing individual goals within the context of family life.

Following his recent arrest and temporary detainment related to alleged criminal defamation against Fuji musician Saheed Osupa, controversial Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola Badmus, known as Portable, has vowed to pursue legal action against anyone who defames him.

In a widely circulated video, Portable declared his intention to ensure the arrest of individuals who engage in defamatory speech against him. Citing his own experience with legal repercussions for defamation, the “Zazu” crooner stated, “Whoever talks bad about me or defames me will be arrested. They have done it to me, and I will do it to anybody too. There is no mercy.”

This declaration follows Portable’s remand at the Oke Kura Correctional Centre in Ilorin after failing to meet initial bail conditions. He was subsequently released after Saheed Osupa withdrew the petition against him. The incident appears to have solidified Portable’s resolve to vigorously defend his reputation through legal means.
