Controversial social media figure and crossdresser Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, was taken into custody again on Thursday night and is set to be questioned in Abuja regarding accusations of bribery and corruption.
Remember that Bobrisky was arrested in March 2024 and sentenced to prison at the Ikoyi Correctional Centre, Lagos State. He was released in August and was then rearrested at the Seme border in October and held by the Benin Immigration Service when he attempted to flee the country.
According to an official from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Bobrisky will be flown to Abuja today Friday, November 1, 2024.
The embattled crossdresser was intercepted and removed from an Amsterdam-bound KLM flight at Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos, detained by immigration officers late Thursday night while attempting to leave the country for London, United Kingdom.
The popular crossdresser took to his Instagram page to inform followers of the arrest, claiming he sustained injuries during a confrontation with immigration officers.
Bobrisky claimed that the EFCC was behind his detention, saying, “Nigerians help me, EFCC just arrested me. I’m badly injured.”
However, sources indicate that his arrest stemmed from his failure to respond to multiple invitations from the commission related to allegations he made against them.
