Controversial Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, widely known as Portable, has once again drawn public attention after a video emerged online showing him in police custody. DDM NEWS reports that the footage, which is currently circulating widely on social media, shows the singer handcuffed and visibly emotional as he cries while being held by the police.
This video has quickly become a major topic of discussion online, largely because it presents a side of the self-styled “Zazu” crooner that many are not used to seeing. Known for his aggressive confidence and outspoken behavior, Portable appears distressed and overwhelmed in the clip, a sharp contrast to his usual public image.
Although the video clearly confirms that the singer is in police custody, the reason for his arrest has not yet been officially disclosed. Reports circulating online suggest the matter may be linked to a personal dispute involving his fourth baby mama, actress and influencer Ashabi Simple. However, DDM NEWS states that this information remains unconfirmed, as no official statement has been released by the police or the parties involved.
As of the time of this report, efforts to obtain clarification from law enforcement authorities have not yielded any response. This has left the public relying on available visuals and past records to understand the situation.
Portable’s arrest has once again brought attention to his long-standing history of controversies. Since rising to fame, the singer has been involved in several incidents that resulted in police intervention, including public altercations, alleged assaults, and confrontations with security agencies. These repeated run-ins have cemented his reputation as one of the most controversial figures in Nigeria’s music industry.
The latest development has sparked mixed reactions from the public. While some fans have expressed concern over the singer’s emotional state, others have criticized him, describing the incident as a continuation of a familiar pattern. Social media platforms have been filled with debates, opinions, and commentary surrounding his actions and recurring legal troubles.
For now, the focus remains on official confirmation from the authorities regarding the circumstances of the arrest. Until then, the viral video continues to fuel conversations nationwide. DDM NEWS will provide updates as soon as more details become available.
