Controversial Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola, better known as Portable has given the reason why he did not go to the station with police officers after they stormed his bar to arrest him on Tuesday.
The ‘I’m a Baboon’ crooner was handed a 72-hour ultimatum by the Ogun State police command to report himself to the nearest police station after he was captured in a viral video resisting arrest by policemen.
On expiration of the ultimatum on Friday, the artiste was arrested by the police and detained at the State Police headquarters in Eleweran, Abeokuta.
In a new video making the rounds on social media, Portable was seen trying to defend himself at the Police headquarters.
According to him, he did not know that the men who stormed his bar in the Sango Ota area to arrest him on Tuesday were police officers.
“I didn’t know the people that came to my bar were police officers,” he said while standing in front of a police chief.
Earlier, the Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer, Abimbola Oyeyemi, who confirmed Portable’s arrest on Friday, said the singer was arrested after failing to honour five invitations.
