A cross-dresser, Idris Okuneye, also known as Bobrisky, has been released on bail by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The EFCC’s spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, disclosed on Saturday but declined further details
Bobrisky was late Thursday night stopped and removed from an Amsterdam-bound KLM flight at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos while boarding a plane to London, the United Kingdom.
He immediately alerted his followers on social media saying he was wounded in the process.
He wrote, “Nigerians, help me, EFCC just arrested me. I’m badly injured.”
He was subsequently taken to the
EFCC’s headquarters in Abuja, and interrogated on his bribery allegations against the commission.
Social critic, Martins Otse, aka VeryDarkMan, had on a voice note said Bobrisky allegedly said he bribed EFCC officers with N15 million to drop money laundering charges against him.
Bobrisky reportedly completed his bail condition late Friday night and was subsequently released.
He, however, denied offering the EFCC bribe in his confessional statement made at the commission’s headquarters, just as he challenged the person who posted the voice note to defend it.
