Portable sacks road manager, Stelliza over financial misappropriation
Portable, the controversial singer, has terminated the contract of Adeseyan ‘Stelliza’ Oluwatosin, his road manager, over alleged financial misappropriation.
In a letter signed by his legal team, Portable said he has parted ways with his road manager.
According to the letter, Oluwatosin was accused of “unethical industry practices” which Portable claimed would pose a risk to the business interests and reputation of Zeh Nation, his label.
The Zeh Nation label boss alleged that her actions have also “jeopardized the financial stability and growth of our artistes”.
“This public notice serves as an official statement on the termination of all business relationships between Mr. Okikiola Badmus [Portable], the CEO of Zeh Nation and Ms. Adeseyan Adedoyin Oluwatosin [Stelliza] in her capacity as the road manager to Portable and Zeh Nation,” the letter reads in part.
“This decision comes as a result of Stelliza’s financial misappropriations and unethical industry practices, which poses significant risks to the business interests, global image, and industry reputation of Portable and Zeh Nation.
“The Company has recently become aware of Stelliza’s actions, which demonstrate a lack of transparency, integrity, and respect for ethical business practices.
“Stelliza’s financial misappropriations have not only breached the trust placed upon her as a Manager, but has also jeopardized the financial stability and growth of our Artiste and Zeh Nation.
“Furthermore, the unethical industry practices attributed to Stelliza have the potential to sabotage the efforts, reputation, and goodwill that Portable and Zeh Nation have worked diligently to establish within the industry. In this regard, it is our firm belief that such unethical practices have no place in our business operations.
“For any inquiries or communication regarding future businesses with our brand, please direct your correspondences and inquiries to the named Manager on the bios of Portable’s verified handles.”

Oritsefemi’s ex-manager debunks his claims of housing Burna Boy, selling car to D’banj
Ijoba Danku, the former manager of Oritsefemi, has denied some recent claims made by the singer.
Oritsefemi, in an interview with Chude Jideonwo, the media personality, alleged that he housed Burna Boy during a family dispute and sold a Prado Jeep to D’banj.
He also accused Danku of fraud and betrayal.
Danku dismissed Oritsefemi’s statements as “lies” when he was featured on Doyin’s Corner podcast.
“Oritsefemi did not sell any Prado to D’banj. I do not support lies. Burna Boy never slept in Oritsefemi’s house for once,” he said.
“How would he claim he helped Burna Boy during his fallout with his mum, did he do family meeting with them?”
Oritsefemi has not responded to the counterclaims.
Earlier, the singer alleged that Nabila Fash, his ex-wife, suffered 21 miscarriages during their marriage.
Fash, however, threatened to sue Oritsefemi over the allegations, describing them as “concocted lies designed to damage my character and bring me to public ridicule”.
Oritsefemi and Fash tied the knot in 2017.
Their marriage faced a crisis in 2021 over allegations of infidelity.
In 2022, Fash filed for divorce from Oritsefemi.
In 2017, Danku revealed that he introduced Oritsefemi to Fash.
The pair had collaborated on numerous projects, including Oritsefemi’s breakout single ‘Double Wahala’.
