The official Instagram account of Nigerian musician Habeeb Olalomi Okikiola, better known as Portable, has been hacked by unknown fraudsters.
Portable's management confirmed the hacking on Wednesday, August 30, and said that they are working to regain control of the account.
The hackers have been impersonating Portable and using the account to spread false information, scams, and potentially harmful content. Portable's management has advised fans to disregard any messages, posts, or requests coming from the compromised account.
Portable and his team have no control over any content that will be posted from the hacked Instagram account until it is restored. They have apologized for the inconvenience and assured fans that they are working to resolve the matter as soon as possible.
This is not the first time that a Nigerian celebrity has had their social media account hacked. In recent months, the accounts of several other celebrities, including Davido, Wizkid, and Burna Boy, have also been compromised.
The hacking of Portable's Instagram account is a reminder of the importance of keeping social media accounts secure. Fans are advised to use strong passwords and enable two-factor authentication to protect their accounts from being hacked.
