Nigerian singer, Portable, also known as Habeeb Okikiola, is back making music after being released from police custody.
On Thursday, Portable shared a preview of his upcoming song, “Spiderman.” This song was inspired by his recent arrest for not paying for his G-Wagon SUV on time.
Produced by 2tuponthebeat, the song talks about how Portable jumped over a gate to escape arrest, showing his ‘flying’ skills.
A video of the incident from Tuesday showed Portable, in a white and black striped shirt, climbing over a gate with eight other people and then running away.
After spending 24 hours in jail, Portable, known for his hit “Zazuu,” was freed when he met the bail conditions.
This is not Portable’s first controversy. In March 2023, the Ogun State Police arrested him for insulting and roughing up police officers in viral videos. Portable ignored a police invitation, leading to his arrest after a 72-hour notice.
Additionally, he was arrested in Ogun State on charges of assault and theft, appearing in court and later being released on bail after a brief time in jail.
