An Abeokuta Magistrate’s Court sitting in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital, has adjourned an assault case against singer Habeeb Okikiola known as Portable, to March 26 to enable the prosecution to merge his charges with those of his workers.
When the case against the singer resumed on Wednesday after his earlier arraignment on February 20, 2025, the prosecution told the court that it would be a waste of judicial time t to hear the case of Portable and that of his workers separately.
The Senior State Counsel, Timilehin Oredein, told the court that Portable’s case had a sister case, which needed to be merged before the commencement of trial.
He reminded the court that the musician and nine of his workers were earlier arraigned on February 6, 2025, on similar charges.
