The organizers of nigerias most prestigious award "The Headies" have threatened to disqualify fast-rising singer, Portable for threatening to kill his co-nominees.
This comes after the controversial singer made what it seems to be like a threat in a viral video that he would kill whoever beats him to the awards if the award isnt won by him.
In the nomination list unveiled by the academy on 14th of May, Portable bagged two nominations, the ‘Rookie of the Year’ and ‘Best Street-Hop Artiste.’ Other nominees in the ‘Rookie of the Year’ category include Fave, Magixx, Av, Ugoccie.
In the second category, he was nominated alongside Bella Shmurda (Cashapp), Mohbad X Rexxie (KPK), Naira Marley (Koleyewon), and Goya Menor (Ameno Amapiano Remix) among others.
In a shortwhile after the announcement, the 'Zazoo’ crooner took to his Instagram page to make a threat to whoever wins the 2022 Headies Award over him.
In reaction to the viral video, the award’s organizers in a statement issued on Friday, May 27 via their official instagram page, said it might be forced to disqualify the singer if he fails to revoke his statement and issue an apology on his Instagram page.
The organizers also disclosed that they have reported the issue to the police.
