Bobrisky Released On Bail By EFCC Following Airport Arrest And Questioning
Bobrisky Released On Bail By EFCC Following Airport Arrest And QuestioningThe Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has granted bail to Idris Okuneye, widely known as Bobrisky, following his controversial detention. The social media personality and cross-dresser was arrested on Thursday night at Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos while attempting to board a KLM flight to Amsterdam.
Bobrisky’s arrest quickly gained attention online when he informed his followers, stating that he had sustained injuries during the incident. He wrote, “Nigerians, help me, EFCC just arrested me. I’m badly injured.” After his arrest, he was taken to the EFCC headquarters in Abuja for questioning regarding allegations that he bribed EFCC officials to drop previous money laundering charges against him.
These allegations arose from a voice note shared by social media critic Martins Otse, known as VeryDarkMan, in which Bobrisky allegedly claimed to have paid N15 million to EFCC officials to avoid the charges. Late Friday night, he was released on bail after completing the necessary procedures. EFCC spokesperson Dele Oyewale confirmed the release to Punch on Saturday but declined to provide further details.
Sources indicated that during his questioning, Bobrisky denied all bribery allegations, challenging the authenticity of the voice note and calling on the person who posted it to present evidence. “He denied any involvement in paying money to any official as a bribe to drop the money laundering charges. He insisted that no one requested money from him at the EFCC, and he did not give anything to anyone,” the source reported.
