The brewing rift between Afrobeats superstar Davido and transport union boss MC Oluomo has taken another turn, as controversial street-hop artiste Portable has entered the conversation with a series of provocative remarks.
Earlier reports revealed that Davido, whose real name is David Adeleke, appeared to take a swipe at MC Oluomo in a post shared on his Instagram story on Monday, July 27, 2026.
Writing in pidgin English, Davido stated: “@kingmcoluomo dem say u Dey game … I doubt lol look ur mirror.”
The singer’s apparent dig came against the backdrop of an ongoing disagreement between MC Oluomo and Davido’s uncle, Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, following the governor’s recent decision to suspend NURTW operations across the state.
Responding through his deputy, Aliyu Issa Ore, MC Oluomo maintained that no governor possesses the power to suspend the union’s operations.
Davido’s post has consequently been interpreted by many as a public show of support for his uncle, particularly with the Osun governorship election scheduled to take place in just weeks on August 15, 2026.
Portable Enters Drama
Portable, who has frequently made headlines for his outspoken and controversial opinions, has now inserted himself into the unfolding drama with a cryptic message that appeared to highlight MC Oluomo’s influence.
He wrote: “Awon Omo Ope Yapa Aiyedade Eruku yapa Abi you won run comot for Naija Ni You go japa go Atlanta Who dey put body. Mc Oluomo no small oo Oga Anybody Olohun Ju Eda lo.”
The singer’s comment, which combined Yoruba expressions with street slang, appeared to suggest that MC Oluomo remains a powerful and influential figure, despite Davido’s apparent attempt to ridicule him.
The latest development has triggered a wave of reactions across social media, with Nigerians and fans weighing in on the growing clash while also debating the relationship between the entertainment industry, politics, and street culture.
