Controversial singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable is in for it as the Ogun State Police Command has ordered him to report himself to any police station in the state.
This is coming after the singer in a viral video, had ordered his boys to beat up a fellow whom he accused of sending a message to his wife, asking her to tell him to stay away from his friends for they had no glory.
In the video, the Zazu Zeh crooner was heard telling his boys to beat the young man to a pulp as they pounced on him, landed him punches and kicks from every corner as he was outnumbered.

However, reacting to the incident, the Ogun State Police Spokesperson, Abimbola Oyeyemi, said; “The attention of Ogun State Police Command has been drawn to a video clip circulating on social media, where a popular hip hop musician, Habeeb Okikiola (a.k.a Portable, the Zazu crooner), was seen organizing some youths to beat up a young man and inflict bodily injury on him. The incident was said to have taken place somewhere within Ogun State about two days ago.”
“Such unruly and violent behaviour is not only barbaric, but unbecoming of somebody who is supposed to be a role model for the youths and therefore should not be tolerated.”
“In view of this, the Command is using this medium to advise Okikiola Habeeb, a.k.a Portable, to report himself at the nearest police station in Ogun State, failure of which his arrest will be ordered.”
“The flagrant display of impunity by Portable in the viral video is condemnable and if not checked, it will send a wrong signal to the youths who are looking up to him as a role model.”
“Jungle justice has no place in our laws and whoever embarked on it must be made to feel the weight of the law, no matter the status of such person.”
