Popular crossdresser Idris Okuneye, known as Bobrisky, is currently in detention at the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) Annex, Alagbon, Lagos.
A police source confirmed that Bobrisky was held overnight in a cell after being arrested by the Nigeria Immigration Service while attempting to leave the country through the Seme border.
The source explained that Bobrisky was brought to the FCID for safekeeping, pending further instructions. “He is here for now, and we are awaiting further directives regarding his case,” the source added.
