Officers of the Kwara State Police Command have detained singer Habeeb Okikilola Badmus, known as Portable, following a formal complaint lodged against him by his senior colleague, Okunola Saheed, widely recognized as “Osupa.”
In a statement issued by the command’s spokesperson, SP Adetoun Ejire-Adeyemi, the complaint involves grave accusations, including criminal defamation, threats to life, incitement, character assassination, conduct likely to cause a breach of peace, and the use of abusive and insulting language.
“In view of the weight of these allegations and the supporting evidence presented, the Command secured a valid arrest warrant from a Magistrate Court sitting in Ilorin. Acting on this warrant, operatives from the Command proceeded to Abeokuta, Ogun State, on Sunday, 13th April 2025, where the suspect was apprehended at about 19:25hrs. He was immediately brought to Ilorin for further investigations.
“Upon his arrival, the suspect’s statement was taken in the presence of legal representatives from both parties.”
The police spokesperson further noted that Portable remains in custody, with plans underway to promptly bring him before a court.
Earlier today, Portable posted a video capturing the moment he was taken into custody by the officers.
