Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has made an emotional appeal to his fans for prayers and support following the Ogun State Government's sealing of his uncompleted building and hotel in Sango-Ota. The government cited unauthorized development without the necessary approval permits as the reason for this action. 

Portable expressed his frustration, alleging that during the operation, over 20 individuals—including artists, customers, and those seeking assistance—were detained. He also claimed that authorities confiscated cars, bikes, phones, and alcoholic beverages from his bar. 

In response to these events, Portable announced the cancellation of his upcoming show in London to focus on safeguarding his family and properties. He emphasized his contributions to the community, such as repairing roads and installing streetlights, and questioned the government's actions against his means of livelihood. 

In a heartfelt Instagram post, he wrote:

"Zazuu Zeh. I need to protect my family and property first. London see you later, no be today man dey travel dey make money. Music is my way, if life dey, man go still go many places. Eyin fans me all I need now is prayer and support. If you spoil me for who love me, you go dey die young. Make una sha support me. Make I dey free my people wey dey back, na help I dey help them. On God my glory go kill my enemy. I believe in God. Any disappointment is a blessing, Man no be God." 

 

 

Additionally, nine of Portable's associates were arraigned in an Ogun State Magistrates' Court for allegedly assaulting officials from the Ota Zonal Planning office during the enforcement operation. The charges include assault, obstruction, and conduct likely to cause a breach of peace. 

As of now, the Ogun State Planning and Development Authority has not publicly responded to Portable's allegations.
