Contentious singer, Portable, has publicly pleaded for forgiveness after a shocking incident where he slapped a pastor who had come to preach at his bar.
Days earlier, a viral video captured the altercation, sparking outrage online.
In the wake of the backlash from both netizens and religious leaders, with some even threatening legal action, Portable addressed the controversy in a late night video shared on the 16th of September, 2024.
The singer linked his reaction to past traumatic experiences, revealing that he believed the pastor had come with harmful spiritual intentions.
Seeking divine mercy, Portable expressed regret for his actions.
“My fans, community issues are different from that of the street. May God forgive me. I didn’t know he was a genuine man of God. If I knew I wouldn’t have slapped him.
“I’m also a child of God. I’m human, I’m not perfect. I am an orphan. They have harmed my sister through this same strategy,” he said.
