The operatives of the Lagos State Police Command have reportedly arrested controversial singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, for allegedly assaulting a police officer in the state.
The singer’s arrest comes a few days after he regained freedom from police custody, following his apprehension for alleged failure to pay the balance of his G-Wagon vehicle.
Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer SP Benjamin Hudenyin had disclosed that the command received a petition against the musician for failure to pay the balance money of the vehicle he purchased from a car dealer.
