Following his arrest by Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) officials, Nigerian crossdresser Bobrisky, whose real name is Okuneye Idris, spent the night in a cell at the Force Criminal Investigation Department Annex in Alagbon, Lagos.
When Bobrisky tried to flee the country through the Seme border, authorities arrested him and moved him to the FCID for “safekeeping” while they awaited further instructions on his case.
A source close to the police said: “Bobrisky was brought to the FCID, Alagbon, around 10 p.m. on Monday. Immigration arrested him at Seme Boarder and brought him for safekeeping.
“He is in detention at the FCID, Alagbon. He was arrested on Sunday, detained overnight, and taken to the FCID, Alagbon, around 10 pm on Monday. He is still at the FCID.”
Confirming Okuneye’s detention on Tuesday, the spokesperson for the FCID, Lagos, ASP Mayegun Aminat, said: “He is detained at FCID Alagbon. He is with us, and we are to get a remand to keep him in custody today.”
Persecondnews recalls that the spokesperson for the NIS, DCI Kenneth Udo, in a statement on Monday evening, described Okuneye as a person of interest over recent issues of public concern.
He said: “In keeping with its commitment to securing the borders, the Nigeria Immigration Service intercepted Okuneye Idris Olanrewaju, otherwise known as Bobrisky, at the Seme Border over an attempt to exit the country.”
