'He refused to honour our invitations' - Police speaks on attempt to arrest Portable

Portable Portable

Controversial Nigerian singer, Portable Zazu was in the news on Tuesday, March 28, after he had a clash with some police officers at his restaurant in Ogun state.

The music star refused to be arrested as he described himself as a baboon in a zoo while challenging the officers to know why they were at his restaurant. He went live online for his fans to witness the interaction between himself and the police.

In a BBC report, the Ogun state police command disclosed why they tried to arrest the Zazu crooner.

The state police spokesperson, Abimbola Oyeyem, stated that Portable was directed to report himself to the Police on more than four occasions, but he refused to honour the invitation.

They then approached a court to get an arrest warrant to put him behind bars.

“When the officers got to the place to carry out the arrest, Portable, on sighting them, stripped himself naked so as to create a scene.

“We are going to use minimum force to arrest him. Portable is not bigger than the law,” the police spokesperson said.
