BREAKING: Bobrisky released from prison

Nigeria’s controversial cross-dresser, Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, has regained freedom from the Kirikiri Correctional Centre, after spending six months in incarceration for abusing the naira by spraying it at parties.

Recall that Bobrisky was sentenced to six months imprisonment on April 12, 2024, without the option of fine by Justice Abimbola Awogboro.

In a video on X on Monday, Bobrisky, spotted with actress, Eniola Ajao, shared excitement on return.

“I’ve missed you guys so much. I can’t wait to have you guys and give you guys what you have missed,” Bobrisky said.

BAR & BENCH WATCH reports that Okuneye was charged by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on four counts bordering on naira abuse.

He pleaded guilty before Justice A.O. Awogboro of the Federal High Court, Lagos.

Justice Awogboro, on April 12, sentenced Okuneye to six months imprisonment without an option of fine.

The judge, while sentencing the convict, said the judgment should serve as a deterrent to others fond of abusing and mutilating the naira.
