Controversial musician, Portable, has claimed that Carter Efe’s victory in the celebrity boxing bout on Friday was scripted by organisers to evade payment of N23 billion to people who placed bets on his winning.

Portable made the claim after being mocked by many celebrities on social media.

DAILY POST reports that Carter Efe, a streamer, defeated Portable in a celebrity boxing match that was held in Lagos on Friday to win a N50 million cash prize.

Carter was crowned the winner of the match after the boxing judges scored him 30 and Portable 27.

Following how Portable was beaten, many Nigerian celebrities mocked the singer over his week-long verbal threats to defeat Carter.

However, speaking amid the ongoing mockery, the singer in an Instagram video on Sunday afternoon stated that the organizers crowned Carter Efe to avoid making a N23 billion betting payment to beneficiary.

“Na zazu, anywhere I follow is where una go follow. I’m the king while you guys are the chiefs. Everybody go dey follow my way. You guys don’t have a different pattern, different content, different music and lifestyle. Aside from being a celebrity or a musician, can’t you invent something new?

“I make Nigeria boxing big by originating celebrity fights. All of you mocking me can’t kill me. So, you guys don’t love me. To those mocking me, for your information, I have already been paid N40 million before the match, we are only fighting for the remaining N10 million.

“My fans, I was paid N40 million before the fight and was also paid N1 million each per post to promote the match five times, that is N5 million and N45, million in total. Carter Efe was throwing fowl blow on me, the referee was not fair to me. Even if I win the match, na 17 million in dollars be the money wey everybody wey do betting for my victory go collect. That’s 23 billion in naira, who go pay am, can organisers pay?

“Carter Efe’s victory was intentional. How many people bet on Carter? Most of the people bet on me. They believe in me and I believe in myself and in God. Na me be first musician wey bring boxing come Nigeria.”

DAILY POST reports that the singer had previously beaten Speed Darlington and Charles Okocha in 2025.
