Controversial Nigerian celebrity crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, better known as Bobrisky, is reportedly set to be released from prison on Monday, August 5.
THECONSCIENCE NG reports that crossdresser is currently serving a six-month prison sentence for abusing naira notes, as handed down by Justice Abimbola Awogboro of the Federal High Court in Lagos on April 12, 2024.
According to celebrity journalist, Stella Dimoko Korkus, Idris, who will be released on Monday, is allegedly not literally in jail as he is enjoying some privileges.
She wrote via her Instagram page, “Cross-dresser Idris Olanrewaju Okuneye who was jailed for six months in March (without option of fine) for abusing Nigeria’s Naira, will be released from jail on August 5, 2024.
“It’s not as if he’s really in Jail sef cos he has been enjoying internet time and call time and has not been denied of anything except that he cannot come out of where he is.”
However, the Lagos State Command of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) has issued a clarification regarding the conditions under which Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky is being held.
Recent rumours had circulated online suggesting that Bobrisky was residing in a VIP apartment within the Kirikiri correctional facility.
However, these claims have been firmly refuted by the NCoS. In a statement released on Saturday, the spokesperson for the Lagos State Command, Rotimi Oladokun, clarified that the convict is not receiving any special treatment and shares a cell with other convicted inmates, contrary to what was speculated in various social media reports.
Oladokun emphasized that the correctional facility does not have en-suite or ‘one-bedroom flat’ style cells.
He further explained that the cell block infrastructure is designed to accommodate multiple inmates and does not support the provision of exclusive amenities for any individual.
