Portable Flaunts Sallah Cow for 2025 Eid, Sparks Hilarious Reactions Online

By Fasuyi Tolulope Samuel

Controversial Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has once again stirred up social media — this time by showing off his Sallah cow ahead of the 2025 Ileya (Eid al-Adha) celebration.

In a video posted on his official social media platforms, Portable is seen proudly displaying the large cow while playfully teasing it in the Yoruba language.

Known for his dramatic and humorous style, the street-hop artiste couldn’t resist engaging in his usual antics, cracking jokes and hyping up the moment as only he can.

The cow, meant for the annual Eid sacrifice, quickly became a hot topic online, not just because of its size but due to Portable’s antics and the reactions it triggered. In the video, he jokingly questioned the cow’s readiness for Ileya, calling it his “new friend” and “partner for the festival.”

However, the comment section quickly turned into a comedy fest. Some fans playfully noted that the cow bears a striking resemblance to Portable himself.

“Na Portable twin be this?” one user quipped. Another chimed in, “This cow looks like it has been listening to Zazu too.” Others questioned why some netizens were “dragging” the cow, asking if it had “entered the wrong pot” — a Yoruba idiom used when someone gets into unexpected trouble.

A few commenters joked that the cow looked too conscious of its fate, calling it “aware of the sacrifice ahead.”

Despite the humor, many fans applauded Portable’s dedication to celebrating the Muslim festival in advance and his continued effort to entertain his audience in unconventional ways.

This is not the first time Portable has used humor and social media antics to grab attention. Whether it’s music, drama, or a Sallah cow, the Zazu crooner knows how to stay in the spotlight — and keep fans talking.

With Ileya 2025 still weeks away, Portable’s early celebration has already set the tone for what promises to be a festive and memorable holiday.
