Grammy-winning Nigerian artist Burna Boy has pledged ₦200 million to Portable. However, there’s a catch.
Portable must first fight nightlife mogul Cubana Chief Priest in a boxing match.
The news surfaced after Burna Boy supporter @BENNY7GG shared a post. The fan posted a screenshot from Burna Boy’s alternate social media account. In it, Burna Boy allegedly wrote: “Walahi! Na 200m I go give Zazu.”
This announcement follows Portable's recent victory over Speed Darlington in a celebrity boxing match. His win created buzz on social media.
Riding this momentum, Portable challenged Cubana Chief Priest to a fight. This has sparked excitement about celebrity boxing in Nigeria.
Celebrity boxing is not new globally but is gaining popularity locally. It combines drama, ego, and clout for viral moments and big promises like Burna Boy's.
It remains unclear if Portable and Cubana Chief Priest will actually fight. However, with ₦200 million at stake, the streets are definitely watching.
