Ogun State Police Finally Arrest Portable

Controversial singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has been arrested by the Nigeria Police.

The Zazoo crooner was arrested on Friday after the 72-hour ultimatum given to him by the Ogun State police command expired.

Recall that the singer was handed a 72-hour ultimatum by the police to report himself to the nearest police station after he was captured in a viral video resisting arrest by operatives of the force.

The Ogun State Police Command spokesman, Abimbola Oyeyemi, confirmed on Friday that Portable was arrested and currently being detained at the Command’s headquarters in Eleweran, Abeokuta.

The PPRO disclosed that Portable was arrested after failing to honour five invitations.

It was gathered that the singer will spend 72 hours in detention before he will be charged to court on Monday.
