Portable Regains Freedom After Meeting Bail Condition

Nigerian musician Habeeb Okikiola, also known as Portable has been released from the custody of the Lagos State Police Command.

Portable was detained on Tuesday after allegedly refusing to pay for his expensive car, the G-Wagon.

The 'Zazzu' singer had bought a Mercedes Benz GLE 350 from Ogunsanwo Temitope (Temmy Autos), an auto dealer in Lagos, but failed to make the payment.

Portable reportedly spent only N13 million after purchasing the vehicle, which was worth N27 million. He was alleged to have refused to pay the N14 million balance.

SP Benajmin Hundeyin, the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, confirmed the singer's release to Vanguard on Wednesday evening.

When asked if Portable had sorted out the issues, the spokesman added, “I have no idea about it but what I can say is that he has been granted bail.”
