CONTROVERSIAL cross-dresser, Idris Okuneye, aka Bobrisky, who was handed a six-month prison sentence over naira abuse, currently shares the same cell with male inmates at the Ikoyi Custodial Centre.
According to media reports, Justice Abimbola Awogboro of the Federal High Court in Lagos, while delivering judgment on Friday, April 12, 2024, said the judgment would be a deterrent to others who are found abusing and mutilating the naira.
Bobrisky, who was taken into the Custodial Centre after the judgment, was said to have been treated equally like other inmates.
However, a source at the facility said the crossdresser was examined at the point of admission, and the outcome of the examination revealed that the convict had no realignment of gender or genital organs.
The source said, “Bobrisky made a public declaration that he was a male and court proceedings are public records. Every inmate brought into a facility during admission is examined. He was equally examined and no realignment of gender or genital organ was discovered. The male biological features were the same.
“After that, a cell was allocated to him, and he had a certain number of inmates with him. A bed space was also allotted to him. It is just like a boarding house where your housemaster will issue you your personal belongings.”
The source added that Bobrisky had been observing the rules and procedures obtained in the facility.
