Legit.ng recalls reporting that the Zeh Nation label boss had acquired a black Mercedes-Benz GLE 350 during the same period, which he claimed cost him N50 million.

The undertaking, however, revealed the car was worth N27 million, with the singer still owing N14 million to balance up.

Voice recordings of the car dealer attempting to contact Portable to pay up have also leaked on social media.

In the viral recordings, the dealer who spoke in Yoruba told the singer to either pay the remaining balance or return the vehicle, which Portable refused.

The car dealer’s petition led to the singer's arrest, as the agreement stated that he had the right to repossess the vehicle without issuing a refund.
