EXPOSED: How Bobrisky Was Guarded Like President In Prison, Received VIP Treatment, Video
Nigerian crossdresser Okuneye Idris Olanrewaju, popularly known as Bobrisky, has found himself at the centre of a burgeoning scandal following revelations about his time in Kirikiri Prison.
Despite being sentenced to six months for naira abuse in April, it was gathered that Bobrisky spent only three weeks incarcerated before allegedly negotiating his early release.
However, the controversy started on Tuesday when social media influencer Martins Vincent Otse, known as VeryDarkMan, shared a recorded phone conversation in which Bobrisky confessed to serving her prison term outside the facility.
According to his claims, he reportedly paid about N15 million to have the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) drop ‘money laundering’ charges against her.
FIJ exclusively reports that sources familiar with the situation revealed that Bobrisky was taken to Kirikiri Custodial Centre following her sentencing in April but was released after just three weeks. However, he was officially freed from prison in August.
A prison official told FIJ that “Bob spent only three weeks here with us in Kirikiri before she was transferred to another undisclosed location.
“This was where she spent her time; it was all arranged, and money was involved,” the source added.
The official revealed that Bobrisky was “guarded like a president” until the socialite’s “secret departure after three weeks.”
“She received VIP treatment throughout her stay,” the source continued. “She lived in a special cell. The money she claimed to have paid is true; there are no lies about that. Yes, she did pay.”
While prison authorities restricted Bobrisky’s interactions with other inmates, this limited the visibility of his eventual disappearance.
“There was one instance when a guy was on a video call with his girlfriend and unexpectedly turned the camera to Bobrisky,” the official recounted. “This was considered an invasion of her privacy, and as a consequence, he was confined to his cell for nearly two months.”
“As I mentioned, she was heavily guarded, which minimized such incidents. She was quietly taken away after three weeks,” the source said.
On Wednesday, Naija News House reported that a renowned lawyer and human rights activist Femi Falana (SAN) had given VeryDarkMan 24 hours to “retract his offensive and derogatory publication” against him or face legal action.
