PORTABLE CONVERTS RECENT ARREST INTO NEW SONG TITLED ‘SPIDERMAN’
Controversial Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola, commonly known as Portable is back in the studio after his release from police custody late Wednesday.
Portable, on Thursday, shared a snippet of yet to be released new song – “Spiderman” in response to his arrest for defaulting on the payment plan for his G-Wagon SUV.
The soon to be released song, produced by 2tuponthebeat, aligns with the singer’s flying power in relation to how he jumped over a gate to escape arrest.
The incident captured in a video that circulated on Tuesday, the singer dressed in a white and black stripe shirt standing alongside eight other people, was seen climbing over a near gate before taking to his heels.
After spending 24 hours in custody, the “Zazuu” crooner regained his freedom after meeting the bail conditions set for his release.
Tuesday’s episode is not the first in Portable controversial diary.
Sometime in March 2023, the Ogun State Police Command arrested the famous singer for cursing and rough handling some men of the Nigeria Police Force in two video clips that went viral.
The police, during a probe of the incident, invited Portable, who refused to honour the invitation. Enraged by his audacity, the police issued a 72-hour ultimatum and subsequently arrested him.
In another development, the singer was also arrested by policemen in Ogun State and later arraigned on five counts bordering on alleged assault and stealing at the Ifo Magistrates’ Court.
He was remanded at the Ilaro Correctional Centre and later released after meeting his bail conditions.
