‘You were denied US visa because you dressed anyhow and insulted officials’- Show promoter tells Portable
Another show promoter identified as Aare Almaroof has waded into the brewing crisis between fast rising musician, Portable and a music promoter, known as Wale Bouncer.
Portable and Wale are at loggerheads over a botched music tour of the United Stated of America by Portable, for which the promoter has reportedly sued Portable for N20 billion.
Portable took to social media to say that his former manager had secured a contract with an international promoter who promised to get him a US visa.
He complained that he was denied a visa five times on his several visits to the embassy.
Portable further complained that he has gotten a new promoter who is ready to get him the US visa, but a representative from the other entertainment group is asking for N20 billion in damages.
In a video that surfaced online, Almaroof countered that Portable was denied the visa because he insulted the embassy’s official during his interview and denied knowing those he was to travel with.
“All these things you’re saying about Wale Bouncer, you didn’t tell people that you insulted the immigration on your first deal,” Almaroof said.
“Secondly you also said you refunded N2 million twice but you sent the money twice, one million naira each. The way you behave isn’t the way life is done.
“With your behaviour, all promoters will run from you. If you continue like this, promoters will run from you.
“You were asked at the embassy about your entourage and you said you didn’t know them. How will you be given the visa?
“Even if you carried Buhari and the most powerful kings, you won’t be given the visa. Because you lied and also insulted the consular.”
He gave out his number and asked Portable to reach out to him so he can beg Wale Bouncer on his behalf. He said any other way would mean more trouble for Portable.
