A magistrate court sitting in Ota, Ogun state has ordered controversial popular street sensation, Habeeb Okikiola, also known as Portable, to be remanded at Ilaro prison pending the formalisation of his bail term.
The Court on Monday granted the controversial singer bail of N300,000, with two sureties from his immediate family.
It was earlier reported that the Ogun State Police Command arraigned Portable on a three-count charge bothering on alleged assault and theft of musical equipment.
The state police command on Friday arrested the singer after refusing to honour 72-hour ultimatum given to him by the police to turn himself in.
The spokesman of the command, Muyiwa Adejobi on Saturday said portable has more than six charges to attend to, apart from resisting arrest and injuring a policeman.
He said, “He will be charged to court for beating up a guy in Ota, who filed a petition to CP Ogun.
“There are many pending cases of assaults on people and attacks, and he will be investigated because people have complained against him.
“So, there is no sentiment in law, let him appear in court, and allow the judge to listen to the charges against him. He has no constitutional immunity anyway.“
