Arise TV hosts' funny reaction to Portable's theatrics after clash with the police

The arrest of famous Hip-hop musician Habeeb Okikiola, commonly called Portable has generated several reactions on traditional media and social media.

The controversial singer dominated the news cycle when two videos of the musicians raining curses on men of the Nigerian police surfaced on the internet.

In the videos, Portable claimed that internet fraudsters had brought the police to his bar to arrest his staff members “for no reason”.

He also claimed in a conversation with the police that their approach to his bar in Ogun State put off customers who were present at the time of the arrest.

Among several accusations, he told the officers that he is a superstar who can't be arrested. He added that they should have called on him or his manager if they wanted him at the police stations.

While social media is still buzzing over the viral videos, hosts of Arise TV's Morning show, Rufai Oseni, Reuben Abati and Ojinika Ope laughed at Portable's theatrics before delving into the crux of the matter.

Meanwhile, the police in Ogun State has issued a 72-hour ultimatum to Portable to report himself to the nearest police station or get arrested.

According to Premium Times, the state’s Police Public Relations Officer, Abimbola Oyeyemi confirmed they issued the 72-hour ultimatum to the controversial singer.

Mr Oyeyemi said Portable had been asked to submit himself to the police or risk being arrested.
