Oritsefemi, Portable cause traffic while filming new music video in Lagos
Nigerian singer Oritsefemi Majemite Ekele popularly known as Oritsefemi and Zazu Crooner Habeeb ‘Portable’ Okikiola have been spotted in Ikeja, filming the music video to their new song Oro Aje.
The shoot which took place today April 25, at Ikeja Underbridge, became rowdy and had to be controlled by security operatives to stop the slow flow of traffic.
Initially, the Afrobeats singers who are known for their “street cred” were disallowed and prohibited from setting up by area boys (agberos) in the area, until a promise and agreement of settlement ensued, before they allowed them film.
Witnessed by Peoples Gazette, the shoot took an interesting turn as onlookers joined the artists with their vocal contributions, causing a bit of scuffle between security operatives and the onlookers.
The song ‘Oro Aje’, which was released April 15, has allegedly gained over a million views on music listening platforms.
This is the first time Oritsefemi and the Odogwu Bitters ambassador would be collaborating.
