Controversial Musician, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly know by his stage name Portable, has finally surrendered himself to the Police.
The Musician surrendered himself at the Lagos State Criminal Investigation Department, Panti, Yaba, after he was declared wanted by the Ogun State Police Command and the Ogun State Government. It is not known why he chose to surrender in Lagos instead of Ogun State where his alleged offences were committed.
Portable had allegedly invited about nine thugs to beat up officials of the Ogun State Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development who had gone to his Odogwu Bar in Ota, Ogun State to carry out an inspection.
Some of the thugs were arrested by the Police but Portable absconded and failed to honour Police invitation leading to him being declared wanted.
Confirming that Portable has surrendered to the Police, Benjamin Hundeyin, the Lagos State Police Command’s Public Relations Officer, confirmed the development on Wednesday afternoon.
Portable just turned himself in at the SCID Yaba. We have contacted Ogun State Police Command to come pick him up,” Hundeyin stated.
He stressed that the Ogun State Police Command had been reached on this development.
It would be recalled that Portable had, via a video said he is a mad man, undergoing treatment at the Neuropsychiatric Hospital, Aro, Abeokuta, Ogun State.
