The controversial cross-dresser Idris Okuneye, widely known as Bobrisky, was re-arrested by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Thursday night.

The arrest took place at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport in Lagos, where Bobrisky was reportedly attempting to board a flight to London.
Just days after securing bail from the Nigerian Police, Bobrisky’s travel plans were abruptly disrupted as authorities detained him and removed him from the aircraft. The flight was promptly halted, and Bobrisky was taken into custody by EFCC operatives.
In a desperate plea for assistance, Bobrisky took to his Instagram account, posting a message that read, “Nigerians help me, EFCC just arrested me. I’m badly injured.” The post has raised concerns among his followers about his well-being and the circumstances surrounding his arrest.
At this time, the specific reasons for Bobrisky’s re-arrest remain unclear, as the EFCC has not yet issued an official statement regarding the incident. The socialite had only recently been granted bail by the Nigerian Police, making this sudden re-arrest a surprising development.
