Abeokuta, February 19, 2025 – Popular Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, widely known as Portable, has reported to the Ogun State Police Command following his recent declaration as a wanted person.
Portable arrived at the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) in Eleweran, Abeokuta, at exactly 1:23 PM on Wednesday, February 19, 2025. His presence at the facility was confirmed by the Ogun State Police Command’s spokesperson, Omolola Odutola, who noted that the singer is currently assisting with an ongoing investigation.
The case involves an incident that occurred on February 5, 2025, during an enforcement exercise by the Ogun State Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development in Ota. Portable allegedly led a violent attack against government officials carrying out their duties.
