Portable Calls Out Bobrisky Over Name Change to Afolashade, Dares Him to a Physical Fight
Nigerian street-hop sensation Portable, whose real name is Habeeb Olalomi Badmus, has once again stirred public controversy—this time targeting popular cross-dresser and social media personality Bobrisky, also known as Idris Okuneye. Portable launched a verbal attack in response to Bobrisky’s recent announcement of a name change and gender identity update, calling him out and even challenging him to a physical fight.
The drama unfolded after Bobrisky officially took to Instagram to announce that he had dropped his male identity and now prefers to be known as Afolashade Amope Okuneye. In a bold statement, Bobrisky declared that he is now a full-fledged woman, having undergone multiple surgical procedures to modify his appearance. He boasted about his new identity, rejecting critics and making it clear that no amount of trolling would stop his transformation.
“It’s time y’all accept Bob is now a woman. I’ve done everything. Congratulations to me. I can now collect gbola like every woman. Not even one billion trolls will stop me,” Bobrisky said in his Instagram post.
“Before you open your dirty mouth to ask if I have a womb, I don’t need it. I love how married men spend on me and I don’t have to keep any unwanted child to ruin their homes. I’m here to keep marriages intact.”
The announcement, unsurprisingly, sparked reactions online, but none louder than Portable’s. In a video posted on Instagram, Portable was seen openly mocking Bobrisky. He questioned the validity of the name change and ridiculed the surgical procedures, suggesting that money had simply bought physical changes, not true identity.
“You used money to change your chest. You think you’re a woman? Let me give you one blow, we go know who be who,” Portable said, challenging Bobrisky to a physical fight.
In a dramatic twist, Portable demanded a Ferrari and ₦100 million to accept the fight challenge. He didn’t stop there—he also called out Bobrisky’s mother, pleading with her to warn her son. Boasting about his street credibility and physical strength, the singer insisted that Bobrisky return to Nigeria for a one-on-one showdown.
“Come back to Nigeria if you’re man—or woman—enough,” he taunted. “Let’s settle this in person.”
This latest episode in Nigeria’s ever-colorful entertainment scene has further highlighted the polarizing personalities of both figures. Portable is known for his controversial behavior and no-holds-barred commentary, while Bobrisky has gained fame as one of the country’s most prominent transgender influencers, often sparking debate with his lifestyle and social media posts.
The public spat has divided fans, with some siding with Portable’s bold stance, while others defend Bobrisky’s right to live as he chooses. Bobrisky, never one to back down from a social media war, has yet to respond to Portable’s challenge—but observers are watching closely to see how the feud unfolds.
This clash of celebrity egos isn’t just about personal rivalry—it reflects deeper issues in Nigerian society about gender identity, cultural values, and the freedom of self-expression. As Bobrisky continues to push boundaries and redefine public perception, and Portable fuels the fire with his raw street energy, this battle of words may just be the beginning of a larger public conversation.
Whether or not a physical fight happens remains to be seen, but one thing is certain—Nigerian entertainment never lacks drama.
