Habeeb Okikiola, controversial singer popularly known as Portable, has criticised fellow artiste Zlatan Ibile over his silence regarding the death of Ilerioluwa Aloba, widely known as Mohbad.
Mohbad passed away on September 12, 2023, at the age of 27. His death remains clouded in controversy, with reports suggesting he was treated by an unlicensed nurse shortly before he died.
Following his death, an old video resurfaced showing a tense moment on a music video set, where Sam Larry, an associate of Mohbad’s former label boss, Naira Marley, and his crew were seen harassing Mohbad. Zlatan was reportedly present during the incident but has since remained silent about what transpired.
After a recent interview between Sam Larry and controversial figure VeryDarkMan (VDM), social media users began pressuring Zlatan to speak up, especially since he witnessed the altercation. Zlatan allegedly told fans that his mother had advised him to stay away from the matter to avoid public backlash.
Portable responded by releasing a video message in which he urged Zlatan to break his silence. He criticised Zlatan for dragging his mother into the issue and questioned his loyalty to Mohbad.

Verydarkman has also offered a huge amount to anyone willing to provide evidence to solve the case of Mohbad’s death.
VDM stated on his Instagram that he was taking up the case amd will be conducting investigation on his own.
He further offered a 10 million naira reward to anyone who has valuable information on a certain viral fooage of Mohbad in a wheelchair.
“10 million naira to anyone who can give me more scenes of the music video set where mohbad and zlatan sat on the wheel chair and samlarry came inside with some group of boys,” he wrote.
VDM also offered 2 million naira to any of the ladies in the video who agrees to come foward for an interview.
