Nigerian cross-dresser and social media sensation Idris Olanrewaju Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, has demanded a thorough and impartial investigation into allegations that he attempted to bribe officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) with N15 million.
The call for scrutiny follows the release of an audio recording that reportedly features Bobrisky discussing the illicit offer in a bid to avoid money laundering charges.
Controversial Audio Sparks Outcry
The controversy ignited when well-known activist and influencer Martins Vincent Otse, known as VeryDarkMan, shared the audio, claiming it implicated Bobrisky in corrupt practices.
According to the recording, Bobrisky allegedly sought to influence EFCC operatives to dismiss serious charges against him and avoid imprisonment at Kirikiri Correctional Centre in Lagos State.
In response to the swirling accusations, Bobrisky has categorically denied any wrongdoing. He described the audio as “fake” and part of a malicious plot to tarnish his reputation.
The cross-dresser’s insistence on the authenticity of the recordings has spurred public debate, with many callers expressing concern for his safety and potential legal repercussions.
Demand for Transparency
In a series of Instagram posts, Bobrisky addressed the allegations head-on. “I am ready for any investigation,” he stated, emphasising that such inquiries should not take place within the confines of the EFCC office where he was previously detained.
He demanded transparency in the process, insisting that it be free from intimidation and conducted in a manner visible to the public.
His message resonated with followers, as he wrote, “Please, everyone calling to tell me the danger I am in and the plans against me should hold it now and fu*k it.” This assertive stance underlines his determination to confront the allegations with confidence.
Legal Battle Looming
Bobrisky further asserted his resolve in the face of accusations, claiming that audio can be easily manipulated. “Anyone can alter any audio, add or frame it, and put it out,” he warned, underlining the potential for misinformation in the digital age.
He encouraged those making allegations against him to take responsibility for any distorted content that is shared.
As the narrative unfolds, he extended an invitation for his accusers to take their claims to court, stating, “I will meet you guys in court this time around if you have any case against me.”
Bobrisky’s willingness to face legal challenges reflects his readiness to fight for his name and character in the public eye.
As this story develops, many will be watching closely to see how both the investigation and any potential legal confrontations unfold.
Bobrisky’s larger-than-life persona continues to draw both support and criticism, making him a central figure in discussions around celebrity culture, accountability, and the legal system in Nigeria.
