Portable, Singer, Posts Himself into Police Trouble

By Adesina Soyooye

A Nigerian Singer, who goes by the stage name, Portable, and who has been in the news, recently, for the wrong reasons, has finally posted himself into a pot of trouble.

In a now deleted viral video, Portable claimed responsibility for the founding and formation of a notorious cult group, One Million Boys.

Police had, in the last couple of years, battled the Cult group which members move in large groups, unleashing terror, including maiming,  armed robbery and murder, on members of the public, especially in Lagos and Ogun States.

Realising he has put himself  into trouble by the post, he quickly deleted it. But it was late. The Police had already taken note, especially, the Inspector General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba.

In an immediate reaction to Portable, the IGP ordered an investigation into Portable’s claims.

In a statement Monday evening, Force Spokesman, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said the IGP has ordered the Lagos State Police Commissioner, Biodun Alabi, to immediately investigate Portable’s claim in order to legally prosecute all involved.

For the investigation, the Police will invite Portable for investigation, to tell them all he knows about the formation of the One Million Boys Cult Group, its members, and its operations.
