Portable Arrested in Abeokuta Over Defamation and Threat Allegations
The Kwara State Police Command has arrested popular singer Habeb Okikiola Badmus, widely known as Portable, over allegations of criminal defamation and other related offences.
According to the police, the arrest followed a petition filed by Okunola Saheed, also known as Osupa, who accused the singer of threatening his life, character assassination, incitement, and using offensive language.
In a statement released by the command’s spokesperson, SP Adetoun Ejire-Adeyemi, it was confirmed that a valid arrest warrant was obtained from a Magistrate Court in Ilorin. Acting on that warrant, officers tracked Portable down in Abeokuta, Ogun State, on Saturday, April 13, 2025, around 7:25 pm.
He was taken into custody and transported to Ilorin for further questioning. The police said his statement was recorded in the presence of legal representatives from both sides.
Portable is still in custody, and authorities say preparations are underway to charge him in court soon.
The police have called on the public to stay calm and avoid spreading false or unverified claims, adding that they remain committed to due process and ensuring justice is served fairly.
