Portable Granted Bail Over Alleged Assaults On Government Officials
An Ogun State Magistrate Court in Abeokuta granted controversial singer Habeeb Okikiola Olalomi, popularly known as Portable, a bail of N2 million on Thursday.
Portable was arraigned for alleged assault on the government officials.
Portable entered the Criminal Investigations Department (SCID), Lagos Command, on Wednesday morning after the Ogun Command declared him wanted.
He was later transferred to the Ogun Command’s headquarters, Eleweran, Abeokuta.
The Zazoo-zeh crooner was arraigned on a five-count charge, which includes conspiracy, assault and restriction, armed with cutlasses and guns, and conduct likely to cause harm.
