Bobrisky Enjoyed Privileges In Prison, Says FG Panel

An investigative panel set up by the Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, has revealed that crossdresser Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, enjoyed special privileges while serving his six-month sentence at the Medium and Maximum Security Custodial Centres.

According to the panel’s report, Bobrisky was accorded preferential treatment, including a furnished single cell, humidifier, and unrestricted visits from family and friends. The report also stated that he had access to a fridge, television, and possibly his phone.

The panel’s chairman, Magdalena Ajani, expressed concerns that Bobrisky’s privileges may have been financially motivated and based on corrupt practices by correctional officers.
