EFCC Arrests Crossdresser, Bobrisky

The EFCC has reportedly arrested popular crossdresser, Idris Okuneye aka Bobrisky.

Bobrisky was arrested at Pinnock Estate in Lagos State earlier today, April 3, 2024.

Bobrisky is rumored to be detained in the female cell by EFCC, and there are reports suggesting that he was arrested for naira abuse.

Operatives of the Lagos Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have reportedly arrested socialite Idris Okuneye better known as Bobrisky.

According to reports, Bobrisky was picked at from his Lagos home on Wednesday, April 3, 2024 over alleged currency mutilation and ab¥se of the Naira.

Soireenews gathered that Bobrisky has been in the news for various controversial reasons including winning the “Best Dressed Female” Award at a movie premiere on March 25, 2024, a development that irked many entertainers.

Amid the social outrage, Force Spokesman, Muyiwa Adejobi, said there is no provision in the law suggesting that crossdressers in Nigeria should be arrested.

“I have not read anywhere that cross-dressing is an offence in Nigeria,” he said.

“Let us be reasonable, you cannot arrest somebody you want to prosecute without having credible evidence and as such, crossdressing is not yet a crime in Nigeria.

“Some of them that are into cross-dressing, the allegation is that they are into something else, that’s where the problem lies. We need enough proof that they are actually into ‘that’. All those offences are natural in Nigeria and punishable under our laws,” Adejobi stressed.
