Controversial Nigerian musician, Portable, has found himself in legal trouble once more after being arrested for allegedly assaulting a police officer. This incident occurred shortly after his release from custody, where he had been detained over issues related to the debt on his car.
The altercation reportedly took place, just hours after Portable, whose real name is Habeeb Okikiola, was freed from custody following a resolution of the financial dispute involving his luxury vehicle.
According to witnesses, the musician became involved in a heated exchange with law enforcement officers, which quickly escalated into physical violence.
Details of the confrontation remain sketchy. The artist, known for his volatile temper and past run-ins with the law, allegedly struck one of the officers during the encounter, leading to his immediate arrest.
Portable’s management team has yet to issue an official statement regarding the incident. However, the arrest has already ignited a flurry of reactions from fans and critics alike, with many expressing concern over the musician’s repeated legal troubles and volatile behavior.
It would be recalled that Portable made headlines when he jumped over gates while the police were trying to apprehend him over the non-payment of a debt. He was later arrested.
