Portable Honours Police Invitation

 


Controversial hip-hop artiste, Habeeb Okikiola a.k.a Portable, has finally honoured the Police’s invite over alleged assault.


The Police Command in Ogun State had on June 20 ordered him to immediately report himself at the nearest police post or be arrested.


The summon followed a case of ‘assault’ on his former Disc Jockey, simply identified as DJ Chicken.


The controversial singer and a group of boys were seen assaulting the DJ in a video posted on social media.


In the viral clip , Portable, who spoke in Yoruba, ordered his “boys” to beat up the DJ for allegedly sending a message to his wife.


In a swift reaction, the Police Spokesman of the command, Abimbola Oyeyemi, ordered him to report himself to a nearest police station in the state or risk being arrested.


He was given 48 hours to report himself to the police.


However, more than a week after the invite, Oyeyemi in a statement made available to newsmen on Thursday in Abeokuta, disclosed that the ‘Zazu’ crooner had honoured the invitation.


The Police Spokesman said the artiste reported at the State Police Headquarters, Eleweran, Abeokuta at about 5pm on Wednesday with his father and manager.


He said portable was interrogated and later granted a bail.


“He was immediately ordered to be taken to the Public Complain Bureau office by the commissioner of police, CP Lanre Bankole, where he was interrogated about his role in the assault melted to the boy in the video.


“However, since the offence committed is a bailable one, and couple with the strike action embarked upon by the civil servants in the state which also affected our courts, the suspect was released to a reliable surety who promised to produce him anytime he is needed,” Oyeyemi said.


He explained that DJ Chicken has “also been invited to come and state his own side of the story to enable the command complete her investigation on time.”
