Controversial Nigerian singer Portable has fired back at fellow entertainer Speed Darlington, who recently accused him of using "juju" (charm or fetish power) to achieve his rising fame.
In a typically blunt and humorous response, Portable didn’t deny the accusation — in fact, he embraced it.“I am not a loser, I am a winner. Speed Darlington is saying I used juju. Yes na juju, go find your own juju,” Portable said in a now-viral Instagram video, sparking laughter and outrage online.
The self-proclaimed "Wahala Musician" has become known for his unfiltered takes, unpredictable behavior, and constant presence in headlines. This time, he turned Speed Darlington’s accusation into a motivational jab, implying that if success comes from "juju," others are free to find theirs too.
The banter between both artistes is part of a growing online rivalry that has entertained fans but also highlighted the eccentricities of Nigeria’s alternative music scene. While Speed Darlington has often mocked Portable’s style and public antics, Portable has consistently clapped back with his signature mix of humor, confidence, and chaos.
Social media reactions were mixed. Some fans praised Portable for owning the narrative and turning criticism into content, while others questioned whether public figures should promote such superstitions in jest. The phrase “Go find your own juju” has already begun trending on X (formerly Twitter), with users turning it into memes and skits.
Despite the controversy, Portable continues to ride the wave of fame with his signature energy, proving once again that in the Nigerian entertainment space, drama sells as much as talent.
