Nigerian crossdresser Idris Okunleye, popularly known as Bobrisky, was reportedly arrested on Monday morning while attempting to escape to the Benin Republic.



Meanwhile, on Monday, social media influencer Martins Otse, known as VeryDarkMan, posted on his social media handle that Bobrisky had been arrested.


A source in the Immigration Service told Newsmen that Bobrisky was arrested by the agency at Seme-Nigerian border during passport check.




His arrest occurred just hours before he was scheduled to attend a Senate panel of inquiry meeting regarding allegations against him.




Reports indicate that Bobrisky was trying to evade questioning by the Senate. 




All efforts made by Reporters to get the reaction of the spokesman for the Nigerian Immigration Service, Kenneth Udo, were not successful.




After asking our reporter to call back, Mr Udo did not answer repeated calls to his mobile line on Monday morning and had yet to reply to a follow-up message sent to him seeking his confirmation on the incident at the time of filing this report.




In September, Reporters reported that the House of Representatives had summoned the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ola Olukoyede, Comptroller-General of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCS), Bobrisky, and VeryDarkMan.

The Joint Committees of the House resolved to investigate claims made in a viral social media voice recording, in which Bobrisky allegedly confessed to paying N15 million to EFCC officials to dismiss charges of money laundering brought against him. 



The conversation ignited public outrage and raised serious questions about the integrity of the EFCC.




The allegations arose after Bobrisky, who was sentenced to six months in prison earlier this year for currency abuse, claimed he was allowed to serve his time in a VIP facility, further fueling suspicions of corruption within the agency.



In response to the mounting pressure, EFCC spokesman Dele Oyewale disclosed that Olukoyode had ordered an immediate internal investigation into the accusations. The EFCC has also invited both Bobrisky and VeryDarkMan to its Lagos Directorate to aid in the inquiry.
