Nigerian singer Portable has alleged that he was paid N20 million by Burna Boy to fight Speed Darlington.
In a recent video, Portable made the claim stating that he was to confront Speed Darlington during their public dispute, insisting Burna boy paid him based on performance.
“The last time Speed Darlington and Burna Boy had issues, he paid me N20 million to beat him in a boxing match. I did it and he paid me,” Portable said.
Recounting the incident further in a mix of English and Pidgin, he added “The time wey Burna Boy and Speed Darlington get issue, wey Speed Darlington dey insult Burna Boy, na me help Burna Boy beat am.
“He promise me N20 million, and he give me. Burna Boy no just invite me like that if I no win, he no go give me the money. I win, na why I collect the N20 million.”
Portable also stressed that the singer fulfilled his promise, noting that he would have reacted publicly if otherwise.
“If he promise me money and he no give me, I go call am out. Na God say make I no call Burna Boy out, na why he come give me,” he said.
In addition to this, Portable extended a similar proposition to Wizkid, offering to confront comedian Carter Efe for a price.
“Now Wizkid should pay me N20 million so I can finish Carter Efe for him,” he added.
