‘ I feel like committing suicide’, says Bobrisky

Nigerian crossdresser, Idris Okuneye popularly known as Bobrisky says the next option she has now is to commit suicide over his leak conversation.

An activist and social media personality, Martins Vincent Otse, VeryDarkMan, had played an audio recording purportedly belonging to social media personality, Bobrisky wherein the latter said he was asked to pay N15 million to have a money laundering charge by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC against him dropped.

Bobrisky has denied the purported audio conversation, and described it as fake.

The Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, has ordered a thorough investigation into allegations of bribery within the Nigerian Correctional Service.

In a post on his social media platforms on Thursday, Bobrisky said she felt of committing suicide.

“I have never in my life though about suicide. But now, it’s coming to my head seeingwhat human beings are doing to their fellow human beings just because you want to bring someone down.

“I don’t need no sympathy from anyone. People that i need sympathy from are my late parents.”

In a voice note played online by VeryDarkMan, a voice, believed to be Bobrisky, was heard saying: “There’s jealousy involved. When I got to court, I admitted guilt, hoping for either a fine or community service. However, the court sentenced me. On my way to prison, my godfather called and assured me I wouldn’t enter prison.

“He told me not to worry and said he would arrange an apartment near the prison and speak to the Comptroller General of Prisons in Abuja.

“After they spoke, I was taken to an apartment where I was told not to come out until I finished my sentence. They informed the person at the apartment that their boss instructed them to keep me there and not let me leave. The person said he’d collect N10m, so I had to call Elele again. Elele gave me N2m because there was no one else to call.”

In the same viral voice note, Bobrisky also allegedly claimed that he paid a N15m bribe to officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to drop money laundering charges against him, leaving only abuse of naira charges, of which he was convicted and sentenced.
