Controversial singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, on Tuesday, declared himself a mad man currently undergoing treatment at the Federal Neuropsychiatric Hospital, Aro, Abeokuta.
The singer disclosed this while appealing to Nigerians and the Ogun State Government following his declaration as a wanted person by the police in Ogun State.
Portable said, “I fear government. I am a Federal Government liability. Then I’m a madman; I have medications that I usually take. You can confirm from Aro Hospital. I have a card that certifies me as one of their patients.
“I am from Abeokuta and they are taking care of me there. I am not a thief, I help people around me without even looking at their background.”
Recall that Portable was reportedly involved in a scuffle with three officials of the Ogun State Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development, Ota Zonal Office: TPL Onabanjo Abidemi, TPL Raymond Lateef and TPL Ridwan Oyero Akinlesi, who had gone to conduct an enforcement exercise at his Odogwu Bar located at Oke-Osa, Tigbo Ilu Ota, Ogun State.
The town planners claimed they encountered an elderly man, later identified as Portable’s father, at the bar.
Upon identifying themselves and requesting the approved building plan, the father informed them that his son was unavailable.
But moments later, Portable, armed with a firearm and other weapons, led a gang of nine thugs in a violent attack on the unarmed officials.
According to the police, “The enforcement officers sustained various bodily injuries but managed to escape and reported the incident to the Ota Area Command, which subsequently escalated the case to the State Criminal Investigation Department for further action.
“Nine accomplices were arrested, but Portable fled the scene and has since gone into hiding.”
But Portable, in his reaction to the police declaration, in multiple rants, took to his Instagram on Tuesday appealing to Nigerians and Governor Dapo Abiodun, alleging that he was set up because he was putting on a vest with the face of Senator Adeola Solomon, popularly known as Yayi.
Portable also claimed that he was a madman and has a card at Aro hospital where he usually takes his treatment
