The Inspector-General of Police has ordered an investigation into the claims made by singer Portable that he formed the notorious cult group, One-Million Boys, terrorising some parts of Lagos State.
Portable claimed in a viral video that he has now deleted it.
A statement released this evening by CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, spokesperson of the force, says the IGP has ordered Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Biodun Alabi, to investigate the indicting statement and take necessary legal action.
Eighteen-Eleven Media reports Adejobi as saying that the 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.
It will be recalled that the controversial singer has a pending case of assault before Ogun State Police Command. He was alleged to have instructed and supervised the beating of a middle age over unverifiable allegations.
