Portable to Drop New Track ‘Spiderman’ After Police Arrest

Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, better known as Portable, is back in the studio after a brief stint in police custody. The buzz is about his upcoming track, Spiderman, inspired by his recent escapades.

Portable‘s arrest came after a disagreement with a car dealer over unpaid debts for his G-Wagon SUV. The whole drama was caught on video, showing Portable daringly attempting to escape by jumping over an iron gate. This bold move sparked the idea for his new song.

On Thursday, Portable gave his fans a sneak peek by sharing a poster for Spiderman, produced by 2tuponthebeat (2T Boys). The song nods to his agility and the dramatic gate-jumping moment that quickly went viral. In the video, Portable, wearing a white and black striped shirt, was seen climbing over the gate with eight others before running off.

After 24 hours in custody, the “Zazuu” star was released upon meeting his bail conditions. This incident is just another chapter in Portable‘s eventful life. Back in March 2023, he was arrested by the Ogun State Police Command for verbally abusing and physically confronting police officers in videos that made the rounds online. Despite being summoned for questioning, Portable initially ignored the invitation, leading to his arrest after a 72-hour ultimatum.

In another run-in with the law, Portable was arrested in Ogun State and charged with assault and theft at the Ifo Magistrates’ Court. He was briefly held at the Ilaro Correctional Centre before being released on bail.
