Portable Turns Alleged Poco Lee UK Arrest Into New Song, Re-Ignites Old Feud

Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has seemingly turned reports of dancer Poco Lee’s alleged arrest in the United Kingdom into a new song, reigniting memories of their highly publicised fallout.

Portable, who is known for quickly drawing inspiration from trending events and controversies, referenced the reported incident in a newly released track.

In the song, the singer said “won ti grab Poco, for Obodo oyinbo, ofi agidi gba pata lowo oyinbo,” which translates roughly to “they have arrested Poco in a foreign land.”

The song has since sparked reactions online, with many fans linking Portable’s latest move to his long-running history with Poco Lee.

The two entertainers previously enjoyed a close professional relationship following their collaboration with singer Olamide on the hit song “Zazoo Zehh” in 2021.

The record became a major turning point in Portable’s career and helped introduce him to a wider audience.

However, their relationship later became strained after Portable publicly accused Poco Lee of issues surrounding money and credit connected to the song.

The dispute generated significant attention at the time, with both entertainers subsequently going their separate ways.

Portable has continued to reference his past experiences and controversies in his music, making his latest song another apparent chapter in the saga.

Despite Portable’s lyrics, reports surrounding Poco Lee’s alleged arrest in the UK have not been independently confirmed by authoritative sources at the time of publication.

It therefore remains unclear whether Poco Lee was formally arrested, the circumstances surrounding the alleged incident or whether any charges were filed.

Portable’s song, however, has already brought the claim back into the spotlight, with social media users debating the circumstances and the singer’s decision to turn the developing story into music.

The incident also highlights Portable’s reputation for incorporating real-life events, public controversies and personal experiences into his music, often attracting widespread attention in the process.

For now, the reported arrest remains unverified, while Poco Lee has yet to publicly respond to Portable’s latest musical reference.
