Lagos – Idris Okuneye, known as Bobrisky, claimed immigration authorities arrested him. He announced this alleged Bobrisky arrest on Instagram Tuesday after returning to Nigeria. Okuneye expressed confusion about the reason for the detention. The Nigerian Immigration Service has not confirmed this claim of arrest.
Background Information
Okuneye previously left Nigeria. He cited personal well-being reasons for leaving. This departure followed a six-month prison sentence. The sentence began in April for naira abuse. After his release, activist VeryDarkMan shared an audio recording. The recording allegedly featured Okuneye discussing payments to EFCC officials. Okuneye denied the recording’s authenticity. He threatened legal action. Okuneye recently stated he relocated to another country. He said the country recognized him as female. He stated he would only visit Nigeria in the future. His current claim of a Bobrisky arrest by immigration conflicts with his statement about not returning permanently.
