Controversial singer Portable has blamed his colleague Zlatan Ibile for not being able to attend the traditional wedding of his senior colleague Davido and Chioma Rowland.
Afrobeats star and Chioma’s star-studded wedding took place in Lagos on Tuesday. Former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Ooni of Ife, Adeyeye Ogunwusi, Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun and businessman Obi Cubana were among the dignitaries at the wedding.
Previously, PREMIUM TIMES reported how the online feud between Portable and Davido began over career advice during a dinner in Atlanta, Georgia.
But Portable, after dinner with Davido, accused Zlatan Ibile of creating tension between him and Davido. He claimed that while they were in Atlanta, Zlatan called Davido and warned him to “behave himself” in Portable.
The 30-year-old singer stated in Instagram videos that Zlatan Ibile ruined his chance to attend Davido’s wedding as a groomsman.
Currently in the United States, the Ogun-born singer said he would have flown to Nigeria for the wedding if not for Zlatan Ibile.
He said: “Davido invited me to his wedding and we discussed the details when Zlatan Ibile called and interrupted things. “If it wasn’t for him, I would have attended the wedding.”

Portable threw shade at Zlatan Ibile for not being one of the groomsmen at the wedding and claimed that the singer did not even attend.
Portable added: “I don’t know if he will be absent or if he arrived late. She was not among those who bowed down to ask for Chioma’s hand in marriage. She is not in the top ten. He made a mistake and his tailor disappointed him. He gave his clothes to a crazy tailor.”
Contrary to what Portable claims, Zlatan attended the event.
Since Portable came into the limelight with his song ‘Zazuu’, he has clashed with several artistes including Wizkid, Naira Marley, Zinoleesky, music promoter Billyque, Kogbagidi and most recently Davido.
