Social Media Star Bobrisky Held at Border Attempting To Escape House of Reps Investigation Over Alleged Money Laundering and Prison Scandal
Popular Nigerian crossdresser, Okuneye Idris, widely known as Bobrisky, has reportedly been held by the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) at the Seme Border while attempting to flee to Benin Republic.
Bobrisky has been under scrutiny following a viral audio recording in which he bragged about not serving time in prison despite being sentenced. In the audio, he also admitted to resolving a money laundering case after allegedly spending ₦15 million.
This revelation was made by activist and vlogger Martins Vincent Otse, known as VeryDarkMan, in a video shared on October 21, 2024. According to the activist, Bobrisky was caught trying to escape ongoing investigations by the Nigerian House of Representatives. Reports claim Bobrisky had sent someone ahead to sign his international passport, hiding in a vehicle to evade detection.
VeryDarkMan, alongside his lawyer Deji Adeyanju, recently appeared before the House of Representatives to address the issue, but Bobrisky failed to show up, citing health concerns.
In his latest video, VeryDarkMan declared, “Bobrisky was arrested this morning at Seme Border Post on his way to escape to Benin Republic.” He further suggested that the NIS is holding the social media personality.

The activist captioned the video: “Bobrisky has been @rrzted this morning while trying to enter BENIN REPUBLIC to escape the current investigation by the house of reps…MAKE WE WAIT FOR BOB TO DEBUNK Cho Cho Cho.”
Bobrisky is yet to issue an official statement on the arrest.
WHAT IS THE OFFENCE REALLY AND DID ANY COURT RULES OR PASSED ANY JUDGEMENT FOR RESTRICTION?
And why the persecution for what every other Nigerian has done continually before and still after the selective NONSENSE.
Including, after serving the imposed sentence.
What is going on in Nigeria?
