VIDEO: Portable, policemen clash at singer’s bar

Popular Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola, well known as Portable, has been involved in a clash with police operatives at his bar in the Sango area of Ogun State.

Portable, in a viral video, was seen exchanging words with policemen who came to arrest him at his bar.

The controversial singer alleged that an internet fraudster, fondly called ‘Yahoo boy’, sent the police operatives to arrest him, adding that his arrest was “unwarranted”.

Portable said: “Police is our friend but these ones here are not our friends. Yahoo boy said they should come and arrest me.

“If you want to invite me to your station, you will invite me with money. Are the police and Yahoo boys now working together? I spend legitimate money and I don’t do Yahoo.

“Am I a Yahoo boy? Why did you come to my office to arrest people? What did I do? You came to my bar and everyone is running.

“Call me and I will come to your offices or my manager will come. I’m a superstar, I’m a celebrity. Show me your ID card.

“You’re talking to Federal Government liability. I work for the government, I work for APC. I work for Tinubu. We’re the ones controlling Nigeria now. I won’t take this.”

One of the police officers in the video said: “There is complain, petition against you.”
