Nigerian crossdresser, Idris Okunneye, better known as Bobrisky, has revealed that his ordeal with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) began after he received the best dressed female award at the movie premiere of Nollywood actress, Eniola Ajao.
The crossdresser recently faced public scrutiny over allegations that he paid for special treatment while serving a jail sentence for naira abuse. A leaked audio tape published by social media activist, Verydarkman suggested that Bobrisky bribed officials of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) to secure preferential treatment in prison.
He was rearrested at the Seme border with the Republic of Benin as tried to flee the country in the heat of the controversy.
After he returned to Lagos, the EFCC again, arrested Bobrisky at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos State as he attempted to board a KLM flight headed to Amsterdam.
Bobrisky’s arrest quickly made waves online when he alerted followers, sharing that he had sustained injuries in the process, saying, “Nigerians, help me, EFCC just arrested me. I’m badly injured.”
He was subsequently transported to the EFCC headquarters in Abuja, where he faced questioning over allegations of bribing EFCC officers to drop previous money laundering charges.
In a post via his Instagram page, Bobrisky stated that he would never get involved in any price or award belonging to a female.
He wrote, “My problem started from when I collected best dressed female with N1 million price. For my life if I see award for best dressed female I go disappear from that location. Everyone know the truth that I am a baddie with class, you wanna compete with me? your mummy never, but when problem wan too much, I run.”
