Portable vs. Peller & Carter Efe: “Free Kolu or Explain to Abuja”
The Nigerian entertainment scene is abuzz with controversy as fast-rising artist Kolu publicly criticized singer Portable for lack of support, while praising Carter Efe and Peller for their assistance. In a viral video, Kolu expressed gratitude to Carter Efe and Peller for their roles in his career development, stating, “Carter Efe is a better person—he blew me. Peller blew me. I’m blown all over, but when I was with you [Portable], you barely posted me.” [1]
This revelation has intensified existing tensions between Portable and Carter Efe. Previously, Portable accused Carter Efe of “stealing” his former signee, Young Duu, after the latter collaborated with Carter Efe on the track “Oyinmo.” Portable claimed that Carter Efe was using Young Duu to undermine his music career. [2]
In response, Carter Efe clarified that he did not steal Young Duu from Portable, emphasizing that he only featured the budding singer in his song and did not sign him to any deal. [3]
The feud escalated when Portable demanded a ₦10 million fee to appear on a TikTok live session with Carter Efe, leading to a public fallout between the two entertainers. [4]
Adding to the drama, Peller and Carter Efe engaged in a heated exchange over their respective relationships during a live session. Peller questioned Carter Efe’s relationship with his girlfriend, Emmanuella, suggesting she might not be the right match. Carter Efe retaliated by criticizing Peller’s relationship with his girlfriend, Jarvis, describing it as unstable. [5]
As the situation unfolds, fans and followers are closely monitoring the developments among these Nigerian entertainers.
