Bobrisky To Be Held In Male Prison – Correctional Officials
Controversial celebrity crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, will be kept in the male section of the prison facility throughout his six-month imprisonment.
Officials of the Nigerian Correctional Service made this known, according to a report by the Nigeria Tribune.
Osun Defender reports that Bobrisky was sentenced on Friday by Justice Abimbola Awogboro of the Lagos Division of the Federal High Court after he pleaded guilty to a four-count charge of naira abuse.
Bobrisky told Awogboro that he was a man when asked to clarify his gender status before the court.
“Since he admitted to being a male in court, then we have to abide by what was submitted in court,” the correctional spokesperson said on Friday.
Prison officials also said Bobrisky will be offered adequate protection from other inmates who might want to sexually violate him.
“He shouldn’t be afraid of sexual assault from other male inmates because our men can give him protection.”
