Portable Arrested, Taken Into Custody In Abeokuta As Police Carry Out Threat

Controversial hip hop act, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly called ‘Portable’ has been arrested and taken into custody by the police in Ogun state.
Ogun state Police Command had by doing this made it clear that the statement issued on Wednesday that Portable would be picked up if he fails to turn himself up on Friday was not in any way an empty threat.
A development recorded last weekend had landed the hip hop act in trouble.
It will be recalled that while resisting arrest at his bar as seen in the viral video, Portable had told the cops that he is a ‘superstar’ ,who works for the ruling APC.
‘You dey tell superstar say ‘you are under arrest’. In my office? You are telling me you are under arrest for what? Why , why? Did I know you?
Petition against me that’s why you come and scattered my bar? You come and everybody is running up and down. Even me…You are supposed to call me then I will come to your office or my manager will come. I have manager’ he had said.
‘No, don’t tell me this one I’m doing will not help me. I’m a superstar. I’m a celebrity. Show me your ID cards everybody. Show me your ID cards oga….I’m a federal government liability. I work for APC. Akoi Tinubu. We own Nigeria’ he added when one of the cops urged him to cooperate with them.
Force PRO , Mr Olumuyiwa Adejobi , a Chief Superintendent of Police, in a statement on Wednesday had not only condemned Portable’s actions but had also noted that he may be made to face prosecution.
Before getting a breather from that, Ogun state Police Command also issued a 72-hour ultimatum submitting that Portable should show up at the nearest police station in the state or get arrested if he misses the deadline.
Following the expiration of the 72-hour ultimatum, the cops struck and got him arrested.
Portable, who is currently undergoing custodial interrogation will not only spend the weekend behind bars but may also be taken to court on Monday.
Team@orientactualmags.com learned spokesman for the Police in Ogun state, Mr Abimbola Oyeyemi, confirmed on Friday that Portable would be spending the weekend at the State Police Headquarters, Eleweran, Abeokuta.
‘On receiving a petition against him , an invitation letter was sent to him five times, but he refused to appear at the police station. Again, an invitation letter was sent to him through his father; he still did not come to the station.
The police did not want a breakdown of law and order, so his arrest was to be effected on Tuesday and now he started with all series of videos, saying all sorts of things. His father has been begging but we have told him if he refuses to turn himself in between now and Friday, he will be arrested’ Oyeyemi had submitted on Wednesday.
It will be recalled that Portable had last year ordered his boys to beat up a DJ in the Sango area of Ogun state and his father had to accompany him to the police headquarters in Eleweran, Abeokuta after he had refused to honour police invitation- Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
