Any Woman Who Leaves Me Can’t Find A Husband Again – Portable Drags Girlfriend, Queen Dami For Publicly Denying Him (Video)

Portable, the controversial Nigerian singer, has shifted his focus to his girlfriend, Queen Dami.

The singer, in a live video, dragged Queen Dami, who is the former wife of the Alaafin of Oyo, for publicly denying him.

According to him, Queen Dami said on a live video with Salo that the singer ‘doesn’t exist’, which was false.

Portable revealed that he and Dami have been back together for some time now and he has been spending most nights with her. Questioning why she was denying him, he asked whether she didn’t want people to know they were back.

Portable stated that she was supposed to tell Ibadan people that they’re back together so they can forgive him. The singer noted how he has been feeding her.

The father of seven added that any woman who leaves him can never find a husband again and made it clear that all his property belongs to his wife, Bewaji, because she stood by him when he had nothing.

“A few days ago, Salo asked Queen Dami about me on her live video, and she said I didn’t exist. This was a lady I had s*x with throughout the night before she went live.

“I was even beside her on the bed. I wanted to ask her why she was denying me. Does she not want people to know we are back together?

Why would she say I didn’t exist? She is supposed to go online and tell the people of Ibadan to forgive me because we are back together. This is someone I am feeding. Any woman that leaves me can never find a husband again. All my property belongs to Bewaji because she stood by me when I had nothing”.

Nigerian music icon Innocent Idibia, widely known as 2Face, has disclosed that he has moved on from his marriage to his ex-wife, Annie Idibia.

The father of eight said he is focused on his life and career.

In a recent interview with media personality Seun Okinbaloye, the veteran singer stated that he is concentrating on his work and personal path after their separation.

He said: “I have moved on from my ex wife Annie Idibia, I dey do my thing dey go.”

They welcomed their first daughter, Isabella, in 2008 and got engaged on Valentine’s Day 2012.

The couple married later that year, with their white wedding taking place in Dubai in 2013.

Their second daughter, Olivia, was born in 2014.

In January 2025, 2Face announced on social media that he and Annie had been separated for some time and had filed for divorce, surprising fans across the country.

After the separation announcement, Annie was reported to have taken a break from social media and even deleted posts on her accounts as she dealt with public reactions to the split.

Months after the divorce became public, videos and photos of 2Face’s traditional wedding to Hon. Natasha Osawaru, a member of the Edo State House of Assembly, circulated online, showing the couple in vibrant attire during their ceremony.

The marriage to Natasha Osawaru sparked mixed reactions among fans, with some discussing the timing so soon after 2Face’s separation from Annie.

Peggy Ovire, the Nollywood actress and producer, has sparked conversation by raising a question about marital infidelity.

In a post shared on her Instagram page, Peggy asked her followers what they would do if they were to find out that their husband is in a s3xual relationship with his female ‘friend’ who is married.

She wrote about a woman dating a man who was having an affair with a married woman with kids.

She said when the lady confronted the man about the affair, he claimed they were just friends and went as far as calling the married side chick ‘local’ just to downplay everything.

She said the lady eventually married the man only to find out that she was right all along as he was and is still sleeping with the married woman. Peggy added that the irony of it all is that the man condemns single ladies who sleep with married men.

Read her post below…

As expected, the actress’ post has since stirred a lot of reactions online.

While some of Peggy’s followers think it’s the story of a movie she’s about to release, others imply that it could be about her.

A quick check on her Instagram page shows that the actress who is married to actor Fredrick Leonard, has yanked off Leonard from her name.

She explained that her role during the protests was not limited to social media commentary.
