I Served My Jail-Term In Full, VDM Is Lying – Bobrisky

Popular crossdresser, Bobrisky has come out to deny allegations of bribing officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to drop money laundering charges against him.

He recently had his say via his social media page, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, the recording circulating where VDM said he paid EFCC 15 million naira to drop his charges are all lies, and he actually served his jail term in full.

Bobrisky added that Nigerians should discard any false information regarding his recent ordeal with EFCC.

His words, “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.”

WOW.

Bobrisky is a Nigerian internet personality and philanthropist who is known as a prominent transgender woman in Nigeria, a country with no LGBT rights. She is also known for her presence on the social media app Snapchat.

Born Okuneye Idris Olarenwaju in 1992, Bobrisky completed her secondary school education at King’s College, Lagos. She also attended graduate school at the University of Lagos (UNILAG).

She became recognized by being highly controversial on social media for the ultra conservative Nigerian standards. Bobrisky was able to gather traffic to her Snapchat account when she claimed she had a lover who is assumed to be of masculine gender despite the law in Nigeria stating that same sex relationships is an offence punishable by serving 14 years in a penitentiary.

Bobrisky has a fair share of fans and has been asked by certain event planners to give speeches at their events. In 2019, Otunba Olusegun Runsewe, Director General of Nigeria’s National Council for Arts and Culture, called Bobrisky “a national disgrace” and said she would be “dealt with ruthlessly” if caught on the streets.
