Controversial hip hop artiste, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable has regained his freedom from the Ilaro Correctional Centre where he was remanded earlier on Monday.
An Ogun State Magistrates’ Court sitting in Ifo in the Ifo Local Government Area of Ogun State had earlier in the day granted him bail in the sum of N300, 000.
The state police command arraigned him on a five-count bordering on assault, among others.
He was accused of assaulting policemen who went to his bar for official duties.
Magistrate A.S Shoneye, while delivering his ruling on the application for bail by his counsel, Adodo Destiny, said the offences are bailable.
He ruled that the musician be granted bail with a bail bond of N300, 000, and two sureties who must reside within the jurisdiction of the court.
The magistrate, however, ruled that he be transferred to the Ilaro Correctional Centre, pending the time his bail conditions are met.
“He has perfected the bail conditions and he just left the custody,” Oyeleke told our correspondent.
The musician had earlier pleaded not guilty to all the charges preferred against him.
