The organisers of the annual awards threatened to disqualify him if he fails to retract his statement and issue an apology on his social media pages.

Portable was nominated to vie in the ‘Rookie of the Year’ and ‘Best Street-Hop Artiste’ categories.

For the second category, he is pitted against Bella Shmurda, Mohbad, Naira Marley, and Goya Menor among others.

Responding via his Instagram page on Friday night, Portable taunted the award organisers, saying they “nominated a mad man musician”
