The Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) has confirmed the arrest of popular crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, also known as Bobrisky.
This was disclosed in a press statement by the service on Monday night, sighted by HOTJIST.
NIS revealed that the crossdresser is presently being interrogated.
The statement said Bobrisky would soon be handed over to appropriate authorities for proper investigation concerning a series of allegations against him.
The statement reads: “In keeping with its commitment to securing the borders, Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) intercepted Okuneye Idris Olanrewaju otherwise known as Bobrisky at the Seme Border over an attempt to Exit the Country.
