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.
Nigerian actress Omowunmi Dada speaks on her relationship and shares that she ended her relationship due to their different beliefs. Her partner was Islamic, and she is Christian.
“I dated someone who, when I met him, was a Christian, and then sometime later Ramadan started and he said he was fasting. I said why, and he said because that is what would make his mom happy. Being a Muslim is what would make his mom happy. There and then, I knew I couldn’t be with him.
“I have nothing against Muslims; I have Muslim friends who are amazing people, by the way. But for the kind of family that I want to raise, I would love to raise my children the Christian way. I want to be able to hold hands with my husband in one faith, in unity as a family.”
Nigerian actor Olaide Olabanji speaks on Peter Obi’s election campaign and shows support for him.
The actor shared “If someone can destroy a country in three years, with ease, another person can make it better. Where bad people are, that’s where the progressive people are also at.
“Gowon ruled Nigeria for nine years, Gen. Murtala Muhammed repaired it in just six months.
“So if your tribe person can’t give you a better life, why not allow Peter Obi to give you a better future?”
VeryDarkMan, a social media activist, speaks on how Nigerians are starting to reflect Nigeria as a government.
Stating that Nigerians are now just as bad as the actions of the government, he shared “Yes, I have the movement to challenge the government 100%. The problem is the average Nigerian is just as bad as their leaders, and they will betray you either for money, tribalism, or religion.”
“Nigerians, a lot of them are wicked. Only vendor you go buy something, vendor no go deliver.”
“Do you know how many scam cases I have in my office? Just few days ago, N70M was recovered. I no even come online come talk….”
