BOBRISKY DENIES GIVING EFCC AGENT N15M
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.
Bobrisky claimed that some unidentified Economic and Financial Crimes Commission agents took N15 million from him in exchange for dropping money laundering accusations against him in a widely shared audio clip that was made public by VeryDarkMan.
The EFCC’s Head of Media and Publicity, Dele Oyewale, responded to the widely circulated recording in a statement on Tuesday, stating that the Commission’s Chairman, Ola Olukoyede, had directed an immediate investigation into the situation.
But Bobrisky claimed that he had served his jail sentence in an Instagram post published on Wednesday morning, denying that he had paid any EFCC officer to drop the money laundering accusations against him.
The contentious social media star further emphasized that the assertion that he was never incarcerated was untrue and was to be disregarded, branding the widely circulated audio recording as phony.
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.”
