The operatives of the Lagos State Police Command have arrested popular singer, Habeeb Okikiola, fondly called Portable, for allegedly refusing to pay the debt he incurred from the purchase of a G-Wagon from a car dealer in the state.
It was gathered that Portable, who was arrested on Tuesday, paid only N13 million for the purchase of the vehicle worth N27 million and refused to pay the N14 million balance.
The singer’s arrest was confirmed by Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer SP Benjamin Hundeyin on Tuesday, May 14, 2024.
