Bobrisky, a well-known crossdresser, was sentenced on April 12, 2024, for abusing the Nigerian naira and was released on August 5, 2024.

The probe was initiated by the Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, following a viral video posted by controversial activist, VeryDarkMan.

In the video, a voice, allegedly Bobrisky’s, claimed that she bribed officials from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to drop a money laundering charge.

It was further alleged that a “godfather” and Haliru Nababa, the Controller General of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS), helped ensure that Bobrisky served her sentence in a private apartment instead of prison.

On September 30, 2024, Tunji-Ojo launched an investigation into the Nigerian Correctional Service, led by Magdalena Ajani, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Interior. The panel was tasked with looking into the allegations of corruption and other violations.

On Monday, Uju Agomoh, Executive Director of Prisoners’ Rehabilitation and Welfare Action (PRAWA), presented the initial findings of the panel at the Ministry of Interior.

According to the report, there was no evidence to support claims that Bobrisky slept outside the prison facility during her imprisonment.

The report confirmed that Bobrisky served her full sentence from April 12 to August 5, with standard remission applied.
