The police, on Saturday confirmed that controversial singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable will be charged to court over series of allegations levied against him.
Confirming the arrest on Saturday, the Force Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi, in a series of tweets, disclosed details of the case against Portable.
Adejobi made the revelation in response to a tweet accusing the police of refusing to apprehend or interrogate Musiliu Akinsanya, better known as MC Oluomo, over his comments deemed to be capable of inciting violence.
“I am sure you are very awake as I have addressed MC’s case, but Portable has more than 6 count charges to attend to, apart from resisting arrest and injuring a police man.
“He will be charged to court for beating up a guy in Otta, who fired a petition to CP Ogun. There are many pending cases of assaults on people and attacks, and he will be investigated because pple have complained against him.
“So, there is no sentiment in law, let him appear in court, and allow the judge to listen to the charges against him. He has no constitutional immunity anyway,” the Force PPRO stated
The police authorities in Ogun State, also confirmed Portable’s arrest on Friday, noting that the action was taken after a 72-hour ultimatum given to him to honour police invitation.
