The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has confirmed the arrest of controversial crossdresser Idris Okuneye also known as Bobrisky at the Seme Border.
A spokesman for the Service, DCI KT Udo, described Bobrisky as a person of interest over recent issues of public concern.
Udo said, “He is undergoing interrogation and will be handed over to the appropriate authorities for further action.
“The Service assures the public that it will continue to be civil and professional in its statutory responsibility of manning the country’s borders.”
A blogger, Martins Otse, known as VeryDarkMan, had alleged in viral videos that some officers of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) collected ₦15 million from Bobrisky during his naira spraying ordeal in April for the anti-graft agency to drop money laundering charges against him.
After that, a court sentenced the crossdresser to six months imprisonment and he was released in August.
The blogger also alleged that Bobrisky paid some millions of naira to secure a choice place in prison.
