Portable’s sister claims singer is under spiritual influence amid legal battle

Gbemisola, the elder sister of controversial Nigerian musician Portable, has alleged that her brother is under a spiritual spell cast by a family member.

She made this claim in response to Portable’s ongoing legal troubles with the Ogun State government.

IDOMA VOICE reports that the singer was arraigned alongside nine associates before the Abeokuta Magistrates’ Court for allegedly assaulting officials from the Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development. However, Portable remains at large.

Speaking from hiding, the singer pleaded for the release of his detained associates, claiming he was being set up by certain individuals. He also challenged authorities to provide video evidence of the alleged assault, warning that the frustration of the situation might drive him to take his own life.

In a viral video on X, Portable’s sister apologized for his actions, insisting that a family member named Akeem was spiritually manipulating him.

She said, “People of Nigeria, I greet you all. I’m Portable’s eldest sister, the first child of his mother. We are just three that our mother gave birth to.

“Portable has never stolen before. I have never come out like this to speak, and he hasn’t even posted me despite being his sister. But he is the only one taking care of the family. If not for him, I would have died during my sickness.

“One of our family members, Akeem, is the one casting a spell on Portable. He is the one spiritually influencing him to misbehave and offend Nigerians.”
