Portable Urges Bobrisky to Seek Forgiveness Amid Suicide Contemplation, Bribery Scandal

Controversial Nigerian singer, Portable, has advised embattled cross-dresser Bobrisky to seek forgiveness and reconsider his lifestyle.

Portable’s remarks came after Bobrisky revealed he was contemplating suicide in light of a N15 million bribery allegation involving himself and officers of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

Popular social media critic, VeryDarkMan, recently leaked an audio recording in which Bobrisky discussed events during his four-month prison term.

In the audio, Bobrisky also claimed that singer Falz contacted him about possibly obtaining a presidential pardon through his father, prominent lawyer Femi Falana.

The leaked audio sparked public outrage, with calls for an investigation into potential corruption within the EFCC and the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS).

On Thursday, Bobrisky shared a post on social media where he admitted he was struggling with suicidal thoughts. In response, Portable urged Bobrisky to reconsider, asking him to seek forgiveness from God rather than contemplate suicide.

In a video shared on Instagram, Portable said, “Bobrisky, life is risky. God doesn’t want sinners to die. Tell him to repent. If you die as a sinner, you are going to hell. Beg God to forgive you.”

He added that if Bobrisky repents, he can still enjoy his life despite the current challenges.

It should be recalled that Bobrisky was sentenced to four months in prison on April 12, 2024, for his involvement in the abuse of the Nigerian currency, the naira.
