Police Declare Portable Wanted Over Attack On Ogun State Officials

Nigerian singer Portable, whose real name is Habeeb Okikiola, is wanted by the Ogun State Police for allegedly attacking government officials.

It is reported that he and his team chased and assaulted officials from the Ogun State Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development during their work.

The incident occurred in the Ota area and resulted in the arrest of nine of Portable’s associates in Abeokuta two weeks ago.
