A Deputy Comptroller of the Nigerian Correctional Services, NCoS, Emby Anukwara, has disclosed that crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, aka Bobrisky, was kept in a ‘privilege cell’ during his jail term in Kirikiri Prison.
He explained that Bobrisky was sent to the privilege cell because he was examined and found to have both male and female sex organs.
The deputy comptroller disclosed this at the correctional centre while addressing members of the House of Representatives investigative committee. …CONTINUE READING
The committee had visited the facility as part of their investigative hearing into the allegations against Bobrisky.
A Lagos Court had sentenced Bobrisky to six months in prison for naira mutilation.
But recordings of a conversation leaked by social media sensation, Martins Ortse aka VeryDarkMan, suggested that Bobrisky never served his jail term at Kirikiri prison as ordered by the court.
In the audio, the crossdresser said he served his jail term in a lodge due to the influence of his ‘godfather’.
However, an investigative panel has said there was no evidence that Bobrisky slept outside the prison during his six-month jail term.
However, the officer while addressing the House of Representatives committee, said: “I am Emby Anukwara, Deputy Comptroller of Corrections and officer in charge of Medium when Bobrisky was brought in here.
“On April 12, 2024, Bobrisky was brought here at about 10:30 pm and at about that time, we could not do the necessary documentation.
“So knowing his history as to if he’s a male or female, we decided to take a proactive action; so I directed that he should be given a single cell in the privilege ward – privilege cell.
“He was taken to P-ward room 2 where we are. The next day when we did the admission, he was taken to medicals where the doctor and matron examined him and said he had a male and female organ.”
