The Lagos State Police Command has confirmed the arrest of singer Portable over his refusal to pay the debt he incurred when he purchased G-Wagon from a car dealer in the state.
Police spokesperson Benjamin Hundeyin confirmed that the singer was arrested on Tuesday.
According to Hundeyin, Portable, during the purchase of the vehicle worth N27m, paid only N13m and had refused to pay the N14m balance.
It was learnt that whenever the car dealer contacted him to pay the balance, he usually claimed that the vehicle was bad.
“Yes, Portable has been arrested. He bought G-Wagon for N27m, paid N13m and refused to pay the rest, claiming the vehicle was bad. We arrested him today,” Hundeyin told Punch.
Before he was eventually apprehended, Portable tried escaping getting arrested by jumping a gate.
He was eventually caught and taken into custody.
