Police to probe singer Portable over claims of masterminding cult group

Controversial Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola popularly known as Portable has landed in trouble with the Nigerian Police Force following his claims that he established a cult group.

In a now-deleted video on Instagram, the ‘Zazoo Zeh’ crooner had boasted that he masterminded the formation of the infamous cult group, ‘One Million Boys’ which terrorizes parts of Lagos and Ogun States.

“Listen to me well, have you heard about Ajah Boys, One Million Boys, I’m their founder. Go and ask Sammy larry,” Portable had said in the eight seconds video.

The video has since gone viral on social media, and sparked mixed reactions from Nigerians.

In reaction, the Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba has ordered a probe into the claims made by the controversial singer.

The Force Spokesperson, Muyiwa Adejobi made this known in a statement on Monday, saying the Commissioner of Police in Lagos, Abiodun Alabi will investigate the matter.

“Sequel to the trending video of one Habeeb Okikiola aka Portable where he claimed to have formed the One Million Boys cult group terrorising some parts of Lagos State, the IGP has ordered CP Lagos to investigate the indicting statement and take necessary legal action,” he said.

“This directive is premised on the continuous effort of the Nigeria Police Force to fish out pillars and sponsors of cult groups in order to decimate their activities and restore sanity to our society.”
