In a surprising turn of events, popular Nigerian socialite and crossdresser Idris Okuneye, widely known as Bobrisky, has reportedly been arrested while attempting to leave the country. The arrest took place at the Seme border, where Bobrisky was allegedly trying to escape to the Republic of Benin amidst ongoing investigations by the Nigerian authorities.
According to social media activist Martins Otse, better known as VeryDarkMan, Bobrisky was taken into custody by Nigerian Immigration Officers early on the morning of October 21. VeryDarkMan shared a video detailing the incident on his Instagram page, asserting that Bobrisky had hidden in his car while attempting to evade capture. It was claimed that he had sent someone to help him sign his international passport before the immigration officials apprehended him.
The controversy surrounding Bobrisky escalated with allegations that he had bribed officials from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). As investigations into these claims continue, the arrest adds a new layer of complexity to the situation.
In his Instagram post, VeryDarkMan challenged Bobrisky to refute the allegations, stating, “Bobrisky has been arrested this morning at the Seme border while trying to enter Benin Republic to escape the current investigation by the House of Reps.” He urged followers to await Bobrisky’s response.
