PORTABLE: I WAS CALLED ‘OLODO’ IN MY FAMILY, BUT TODAY I’M THE ONE FEEDING THEM

Controversial Nigerian singer, Portable, has opened up about the struggles he faced while growing up, revealing that he was often called “Olodo” a Yoruba word used to describe someone considered unintelligent or academically weak by members of his family. According to the singer, the label affected him at the time, but he never allowed it to determine his future.

Speaking about his journey to success, Portable said life has taken an unexpected turn, as he is now the one providing financial support for many of the same people who once looked down on him. He noted that his achievements in the music industry have enabled him to change not only his own life but also the lives of those around him.

The Zazoo Zehh crooner explained that his story is proof that academic performance alone does not define a person’s destiny. While admitting that he was not considered brilliant during his younger years, he stressed that determination, hard work, and self-belief have helped him rise above the criticism he once endured.

Portable also surprised fans by revealing that he is currently studying Business Administration at Kwara Polytechnic. The singer said he decided to return to school because he understands the importance of education, especially in managing his growing career and business interests.

His revelation has generated widespread reactions on social media, with many Nigerians applauding his decision to further his education despite his fame. Others described his journey as an inspiring reminder that it is never too late to pursue academic goals while building a successful career.
