Singer Portable, whose real name is Habeeb Okikiola Badmus, has been remanded in the Oke Kura Correctional Centre in Ilorin, Kwara State, due to his inability to meet the bail conditions set by an Upper Area Court.
He was granted bail of N1 million with two sureties required in like sum.

The court specified that one surety must be either the Chairman or Secretary of the Performing Musicians Association of Nigeria (PMAN), while the other must be a property owner in a Government Reserved Area (GRA) in Ilorin with a valid Certificate of Occupancy.

The charges against Portable include defamation of character, intimidation, inciting public disturbance, and cyberstalking, stemming from a live Instagram broadcast where he allegedly defamed fellow artist Okunola Saheed Osupa, aka Osupa.
In the video, Portable made disparaging remarks about Osupa, claiming he was envious of his success and trying to tarnish his reputation.

Osupa filed a petition on March 21, 2025, and the case was documented under First Information Report (FIR) 117(1) CPC.
Portable’s release is contingent upon fulfilling the bail conditions, and the court has adjourned the case, emphasizing the importance of maintaining order and respect throughout the ongoing legal process.
