Popular crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, widely known as Bobrisky, has denied allegations of bribing officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to drop money laundering charges against him.
The accusation was made by social media influencer Martins Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan, in a viral audio recording.
In the audio, Bobrisky was alleged to have paid N15 million to unnamed EFCC operatives to evade charges.
However, in an Instagram post on Wednesday, Bobrisky refuted the claims, insisting that the viral voice recording is fake.
“My attention has been drawn to a fake voice recording circulating on the internet that I paid EFCC N15 million and that I was never in prison. This is a very big lie. I served my term in full, and I came out. Discard any false information,” he wrote.
Reacting to the allegation, EFCC’s Head of Media and Publicity, Dele Oyewale, confirmed that the Commission’s Chairman, Ola Olukoyede, had ordered an investigation into the matter.
Bobrisky emphasized that he never paid any bribe to secure his release, urging the public to disregard the circulating claims.
