Portable.
Habeeb Okikiola, Nigerian music act, better known as Portable, has secured his release from the custody of the Lagos State Police Command.
Portable was forcefully arrested on Tuesday over his alleged refusal to make balance payment for his luxury car, the G-Wagon.
The ‘Zazzu Zeh’ crooner had purchased a Mercedes Benz GLE 350 from Ogunsanwo Temitope (Temmy Autos), a car dealer in Lagos but failed to complete the payment.
Portable, it was gathered, had paid N13 million only, after purchasing the vehicle, which was worth N27 million. He was said to have refused to pay the N14 million balance.
SP Benajmin Hundeyin, Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, confirmed the release of the singer Wednesday evening.
Added the spokesman when asked if Portable had sorted out the issues: “I have no idea about it but what I can say is that he has been granted bail”.
