'I Paid ₦5m To SAN For Pardon, I Didn't Stay In Prison' - Bobrisky Claims In 'Fresh Evidence' Released By VDM

Controversial crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, has claimed he paid the sum of ₦5 million to a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) to get a pardon from the federal government in the money laundering charges brought against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).​


According to him, the SAN demanded ₦10 million, but he couldn’t raise it because his account had been frozen by the EFCC, which prompted an intervention from his godfather in paying the ₦ 5 million upfront.

Bobrisky also boasted that with the help of his godfather, he wasn’t kept in a prison cell but in a private apartment close to the prison so he could always make a quick dash to the prison facility as occasion demanded.

The fresh details were made public in a video posted on Monday by social media activist, Martins Otse, a.k.a. VeryDarkMan.

VDM claimed the call recording was made on May 16, 2024.

“Truth be told, I won’t lie to you, you’re my person. I’m not in prison, but I’m around there. They got me an apartment because of my godfather. My godfather was able to say, ‘Never, you will not smell that prison.’

“Let the world think that, but you will never.” “So, he was able to talk to the Deputy Controller in Nigeria and he said that as long as Bob is not posting or saying anything, they can put me close to the place so I can always come inside and see people, and welcome my family. Nobody needs to know,”
Bobrisky said.

Bobrisky also narrated attempts by the godfather at securing a pardon and fastrack release for him.

He said: “I’m supposed to finish my sentence by July, but if we get the amnesty, I could leave by the first week of next month. The SAN asked for N10 million, which I could have transferred, but my account is frozen. My godfather gave me N5 million and we sent it to the SAN two weeks ago. He has already submitted the pardon request.”

Bobrisky further disclosed that his godfather arranged the private apartment with the help of the Deputy Controller of the Nigerian Correctional Service with the condition that he won’t post anything on social media.

He stated, “They were worried about putting me in a male facility due to the risk of harassment, so they arranged for me to stay nearby, as long as I don’t post or say anything.”

This disclosure is the latest in the allegation by VDM that Bobrisky paid the sum of ₦15 million to officials of the EFCC to drop the money laundering charges against him and also to secure a choice apartment from officials of the Nigeria Correctional Services (NCoS).
