Controversial street-hop artist, Habeeb Okikilola Badmus, better known as Portable, has been arrested by operatives of the Kwara State Police Command following a petition filed by veteran fuji musician, Okunola Saheed, popularly called Osupa.
According to a statement released by the command’s spokesperson, SP Adetoun Ejire-Adeyemi, the petition accused Portable of several serious offences including criminal defamation, threats to life, incitement, character assassination, conduct likely to cause a breach of public peace, as well as the use of abusive and offensive language.
‘’In view of the weight of these allegations and the supporting evidence presented, the command secured a valid arrest warrant from a Magistrate Court sitting in Ilorin. Acting on this warrant, operatives from the command proceeded to Abeokuta, Ogun State, on Sunday, 13th April 2025, where the suspect was apprehended at about 19:25hrs. He was immediately brought to Ilorin for further investigations.
“Upon his arrival, the suspect’s statement was taken in the presence of legal representatives from both parties,” the statement read.
The police spokesperson confirmed that Portable remains in custody, and swift arrangements are underway to formally charge him in court.
