Video clips of the moment circulated online, prompting fans to express support and empathy. One user wrote, “Na only her know wetin dey dey talk to God,” while others prayed for her well-being and offered messages of encouragement.

Ashabi’s appearance comes after a challenging few months, which began with a publicised argument with Portable. According to reports, the altercation involved physical confrontations and escalated tensions between Ashabi, her siblings, and the singer’s family.

Ashabi alleged she was attacked during a New Year visit, while Portable accused her of attempting to harm his household.

Despite the public scrutiny, Ashabi has urged followers and critics to give her space, stating she needs time to reflect and make decisions independently.

She also described Portable as a narcissist, noting his unpredictable behaviour and anger issues have forced her to carefully manage her interactions with him.
