Controversial singer Portable has been arrested by officers of the Ogun state police command over an alleged assault.
The musician was arrested on Friday following the expiration of the 72-hour ultimatum given to him to turn himself in.
Abimbola Oyeyemi, the state police spokesperson, said the singer is currently detained at the state headquarters of the police in Eleweran, Abeokuta.

“Yes. He was arrested today. Just this evening,” the police spokesperson told the press.
Meanwhile, Nigerian singer Terry G has warned those comparing him to his embattled colleague, Portable, to stop making a such comparison.
The musician gave the warning on social media after some Nigerians said Portable’s recent confrontation with the police is similar to the conduct of Terry G.
However, Terry G, who seemed displeased by the comparison, objected to the statement saying it’s like comparing the original with a photocopy.
