Singer Portable faces a string of serious criminal charges in court. The artist was arraigned on counts including assault, theft, and resisting arrest. These charges stem from an alleged incident at his bar involving his estranged partner and several police officers. A female inspector was among the officers reportedly attacked.
He also stands accused of stealing a Mercedes-Benz valued at twelve million naira. Other named victims include multiple individuals connected to the initial altercation. Two siblings of his partner testified during proceedings, though she was not present.
The judge denied bail for the singer, citing the absence of a key assaulted officer. Portable was remanded in custody with his detention extended. Police are separately investigating a circulated video showing the artist being assaulted while in custody.
