Portable surrenders to Lagos State police Command

Controversial Nigerian Singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has surrendered himself to the Lagos State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) in Yaba.

This follows his being declared wanted by the police in Ogun State, as well as investigation into allegations of violent conduct and assault on government officials in Ogun State.

The surrender was confirmed by Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer Benjamin Hundeyin on Wednesday.

“Portable just turned himself in at the SCID Yaba. We have contacted Ogun State Police Command to come pick him up,” Hundeyin confirmed in a text message.

The alleged attack on government involved three officials from the Ogun State Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development, Ota Zonal Office—TPL Onabanjo Abidemi, TPL Raymond Lateef, and TPL Ridwan Oyero Akinlesi—who were on an enforcement mission at Oke-Osa, Tigbo Ilu Ota.

According to reports, the officials were in the area to enforce government regulations when they were confronted by Portable and his associates.
