New details have surfaced regarding the arrest of Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, who was apprehended by the Benin Republic Immigration Service at the Seme border during a routine passport check, News360 Nigeria reports.

Sources from the Immigration Service confirmed that Bobrisky was arrested late at night and held until the following morning. He is currently being transferred to the Lagos zone of the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) in Ikeja for further questioning.

Bobrisky allegedly attempted to leave Nigeria without drawing attention but was identified when an officer recognized his name while processing his passport. “He tried to have someone else stamp his passport, but the officer demanded he step down from the vehicle,” an insider disclosed.

The popular crossdresser is currently under investigation by the House of Representatives, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), and the Nigerian Correctional Service.

This follows allegations from social media influencer Martins Ortse, also known as VeryDarkMan, who claimed that Bobrisky paid N15 million to EFCC officials to drop money laundering charges. Bobrisky has not publicly responded to these accusations.

Meanwhile, an investigative panel set up by the Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, has revealed that Idris Okuneye, widely known as Bobrisky, completed a six-month jail term earlier this year.

“The panel did not find any evidence thus far that suggested that Mr Okuneye slept outside the custodial centre during the period of his imprisonment, which was from 12th April 2024 to 5th August 2024, which is a six-month correctional sentence with the usual remission applicable”.
