Beleaguered popular cross-dresser, Idris Okuneye, aka, Bobrisky, has travelled of the country, according to the notifications on his verified Instagram handle @bobrisky222.
The notification came a few days after he was released by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission [EFCC].
While the controversial social media siren did not reveal his destination, Bobrisky, in a series of videos shared on his Instagram story on Monday [today] morning, announced that he was travelling on a first-class ticket.
“See you soon, Nigeria. This girl bought a first-class ticket three times; that’s over 30 million. Raise the bar for this girl,” he posted.
Bobrisky’s departure comes on the heels of a series of events that unfolded last week, whereby the embattled cross-dresser was stopped and removed from an Amsterdam-bound KLM flight at Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, while attempting to travel to London on Thursday night.
He alleged that he sustained injuries during the incident and subsequently alerted his followers on social media.
Following the incident, he was taken to the headquarters of the EFCC in Abuja, where he reportedly faced questioning regarding claims that he had bribed the operatives of the anti-graft agency with N15 million to dismiss money laundering charges against him.
He was later released on bail on Saturday after he reportedly denied bribing the EFCC in his confessional statement made at the commission’s headquarters.
Bobrisky’s legal troubles began in April 2024 when he was sentenced to six months in prison for naira abuse.
Although initially incarcerated at Kirikiri Prison, reports emerged that he spent only three weeks in confinement before being discreetly relocated to an undisclosed private location.
The situation escalated further in September when a social media influencer, Martins Otse, aka, VeryDarkMan, released an audio recording allegedly featuring Bobrisky discussing the bribery of EFCC officials to drop money laundering charges against him.
