Bobrisky Jets out of Nigeria, Says See You Soon

Popular Nigerian crossdresser Idris Okuneye Olarenwaju, widely known as Bobrisky, has reportedly departed Nigeria just days after being released by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Okuneye posted a video of himself aboard what looked like a plane, revealing a screen that indicated his destination. 

In the video recording, he disclosed that he was flying on a first-class ticket.

He said, “See you soon, Nigeria. This girl bought a first-class ticket three times; that’s about 30 million. Raise the bar for this girl.”

Similarly, in another video showing a picture of his international passport, he said, “That passport disfigured my picture.”

The controversial crossdresser’s departure comes on the heels of his current apprehension by the EFCC. His legal troubles started in April 2024 with a six-month jail term for naira mutilation, but reports indicated he spent only three weeks in Kirikiri Prison before being discreetly relocated.

In September, tensions worsened when social media influencer Martins Vincent Otse, widely known as VeryDarkMan, released a call recording that purportedly featured Bobrisky discussing bribing EFCC officials to dismiss money laundering charges.

Bobrisky was stopped and removed from an Amsterdam-bound KLM flight at Murtala Muhammad International Airport while attempting to travel to London on Thursday night.
