Singer Portable takes to Instagram: “I’m a mad man…”
The zazoo-zeh crooner was reportedly involved in a fight with three officials from the Ogun State Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development, Ota Zonal Office
Singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has declared that he is a mad man who is undergoing treatment at the Federal Neuropsychiatric Hospital, Aro, Abeokuta.
Portable said this while appealing to Nigerians and the Ogun State Government on Tuesday after being declared wanted by the state police command.
The zazoo-zeh crooner was reportedly involved in a fight with three officials from the Ogun State Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development, Ota Zonal Office: TPL Onabanjo Abidemi, TPL Raymond Lateef and TPL Ridwan Oyero Akinlesi.
They were conducting an enforcement exercise at Oke-Osa, Tigbo Ilu Ota, Ogun State.
The town planners claimed they encountered an elderly man, later identified as Portable’s father, at Odogwu Bar in the area.
Upon identifying themselves and requesting the approved building plan, the father informed them that his son was unavailable.
However, moments later, Portable, armed with a firearm and other weapons, led a gang of nine thugs in a violent attack on the unarmed officials.
The police claimed, “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.”
However, reacting to the declaration, Portable in a multiple rants took to his Instagram on Tuesday appealing to Nigerians and the state 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.
The singer also noted that he was a madman and has a card at Aro hospital where he usually takes his treatment.
He 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.”

Papa Ajasco rebrands as Bondu Alaska
” Ladies and Gentlemen, good morning Nigerians. My name is Bondu Alaska. The one and only Bondu Alaska. I want to use this medium to thank Nigerians because they have done a lot for me in my life. I’m a new person now, and I promise that I will not let you down”.
Abiodun Ayoyinka, the veteran actor behind the iconic character Papa Ajasco, is now bearing a new stage name called Bondu Alaska.
The move follows a public dispute with Wale Adenuga Productions over the use of the Papa Ajasco brand.
In a video announcing the rebranding on Instagram, Ayoyinka expressed gratitude for the support he received following his recent viral interview and promised to make a fresh start as Bondu Alaska.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, good morning Nigerians. My name is Bondu Alaska. The one and only Bondu Alaska. I want to use this medium to thank Nigerians because they have done a lot for me in my life. I’m a new person now, and I promise that I will not let you down”, he said.
He has since then changed his Instagram handle to @bondualaska_ and is encouraging fans and brands to connect with him under his new persona.
The rebranding appears to be a strategic response to legal constraints related to his Papa Ajasco role.
