Popular crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, has denied a bribery allegation levelled against him by a social media influencer, Martins Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan.
Credible News recall that in a viral audio released by VeryDarkMan, Bobrisky alleged that some unnamed Economic and Financial Crimes Commission operatives collected N15 million from him to drop money laundering charges against him.
VeryDarkMan also alleged that Bobrisky never went to the prison as widely reported but was rather kept in an apartment.
The Controller General of the Nigerian Correctional Service, Haliru Nababa na di was also fingered in the circulated audio confession as Bobrisky has claimed that Nababa received a call from the cross dresser’s ‘godfather’ who ordered that he should be kept in the apartment instead of Kirikiri.

VeryDarkMan, while condemning these acts, called on the EFCC and the Correctional Service to investigate and bring to book the perpetrators of such acts, as according to him, only the poor masses gets to suffer for crimes while the rich in the country go free even after committing heinous crimes.
Reacting to the viral audio in a statement on Tuesday, the EFCC’s Head of Media and Publicity, Dele Oyewale, said the Commission’s Chairman, Ola Olukoyede, had ordered an immediate investigation into the matter.
However, in an Instagram post on Wednesday morning, Bobirsky denied bribing any EFCC officer to drop money laundering charges against him, saying that he served his jail term.
The controversial social media sensation also described the viral voice recording as fake, stressing that the claim that he was never in prison was false and should be ignored.
He wrote: “My attention has been drawn to a fake voice recording circulating on the internet that I paid EFCC 15 million naira, and that I was never in prison… I didn’t pay any EFCC money, which is a very big lie. I served my term in full, and I came out. Discard any false information.”
