“Portable is in deep trouble, and he is aware of it. Let me clarify what occurred yesterday at his Odogwu Bar round Iyana Ilogbo.
A number of days in the past, the brokers of the Ogun State Planning and Growth Allow Authority (OGPDPA) zonal planning officers in Ibogun and Otta started a joint monitoring and auditing of the developments across the space to test planning allow standing and serve notices for unlawful constructions within the zones.
The brokers had been working on the different aspect of the highway to his bar when Portable made a video (nonetheless on his IG web page) speaking about how he’s the city planner. He even requested folks in his bar to name him city planner, and so they chorused it. He bullied the brokers, stated nobody can plan a city he’s in. He continued till the city planning guys left for his or her security.
Yesterday, once they received to Portable’s Bar, they met his dad, and so they defined to him what they had been there to do. They issued him the discover of unlawful construction and advised the dad that they’ve a lot of days to problem it if they’ve legitimate paperwork of their possession.
The daddy advised them Portable was not round, however he promised that when he comes again, they’d present him the discover.
Because the brokers had been pasting the notices, Portable and his space boys arrived on Okada, and so they attacked the federal government officers. The brokers tried to run for security, Portable then requested Okada riders to dam them and beat them. He additionally personally slapped and assaulted the officers.
The brokers bumped into their automobile, Portable jumped on Okada, and pursued them to dam their escape route. The officers ran to security in a petroleum station. Folks shielded them, and so they referred to as their workplace. The workplace knowledgeable the police, and the police arrived in time to rescue the brokers.
It’s loopy that it took the intervention of the police for the city planning brokers to flee Portable and his space boys as they had been beating and pelting the federal government agent with stones at the same time as they hid within the petrol station.
The police went again and arrested everybody suspected to be concerned in assaulting the federal government officers, and so they moved all of the automobiles of the suspects and others who escaped.
It’s simple to inform that Portable is mendacity as a result of city planning officers don’t vandalize properties, and so they don’t have the facility to arrest folks. Everybody is aware of that.
If his property was vandalized by the federal government brokers, Portable would have the video, and it could be to everybody’s benefit that he publish it or go to the police station and lodge a proper criticism.
Recall that Portable has a well-documented historical past of assaulting authorities brokers. In 2023, he was arrested and arraigned by the Ogun State police command in 2023 for allegedly manhandling and assaulting cops.
Portable himself is reportedly in hiding now. Anytime he reveals his face, he will probably be arrested, and I hope he’s prosecuted this time round.”
