Netizens Reactions…

@DanielRegha said: “Portable crying means nothing, cos there’s no guarantee that he won’t repeat the same wrongful act in the near future if he finds himself in the same situation. His apology might come off as genuine, but he’s someone that’s eager to be in the spotlight so it’s difficult to take him seriously.”

@naturalboifilmz said: “Nigerians are in a toxic relationship with Portable. One week, he’s causing trouble; the next, he’s stirring up emotions, scaring us, making us angry, then making us laugh, always doing anything to stay in the spotlight.”

@betty_nwabunike said: “Well it’s good of him to apologise.We could say he is a humble man and can also be sensitive.”

@i_ikeazota said: “The Christian community should take her faith serious else Christianity will turn mockery.”

@GeniusHawlah said: “He go still enter another issue wey go make am apologize very soon. Na wetin dey keep am relevant be that. If he no cause trouble nothing dey for am.”

@BlessedAjoke said: “Normal normal portable no well now that he’s back to his senses Abeg forgive him biko.”

@adeola2707 said: “I just pray this tears aren’t fake ooo Portable and drama are 5&6.”

@stepp02 said: “No matter what, the seed has been sown glory to God.”
