MC Oluomo has waded in to defend Portable as backlashes and alleged threats continue to trail a comment he made about being the founder of ‘One Million Boys.’
The ‘One Million Boys’ cult group was infamous for terrorising residents in some parts of Lagos state years back.
Although he would later backtrack that he meant “one million followers” on Instagram, the inspector general of police ordered an investigation into the matter.
But in a video that surfaced on Friday morning, the chairman of the Lagos State Park and Garages Management, whose real name is Musiliu Akinsanya, appeared to have assured the singer of his protection from “thugs”.

Listen to me. Anywhere in Lagos state. You said he should not step foot in Agege,” Oluomo warned in Yoruba.
“Who are those in Agege? We’re the ones. You also said he shouldn’t step foot in Oshodi and Lekki.
“Who are those in charge of these places? We’re the ones. Please stop it.”
In the later parts of the footage, Portable proceeds to hail Oluomo as “the king of street-smart locals in Lagos”.
During his cult rant, Portable listed a promoter identified as Sammy Larry among those who witnessed his influence in the cult group.
Larry, however, came out in the open to disown the singer.
