Popular Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola Badmus, known as “Portable,” has been arrested by the Kwara State police command for alleged criminal defamation and other related offenses. The arrest was made in Abeokuta, Ogun State, on Saturday by operatives of the Kwara State command, who acted on a petition filed by Okunola Saheed, also known as “Osupa”.

The petition accused Portable of serious offenses, including criminal defamation, threat to life, incitement, character assassination, and conduct likely to cause a breach of peace. After securing a valid arrest warrant from a Magistrate Court in Ilorin, the police apprehended Portable and brought him to Ilorin for further investigation.
