Bobrisky Pleads Guilty To Naira Abuse

Controversial cross-dresser Idris Okuneye, commonly known as Bobrisky, pleaded guilty on Friday to the accusation of abusing the Naira, as charged by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

However, the EFCC, represented by its counsel Suleiman Suleiman, withdrew the earlier filed two-count charge of laundering N180.7 million through his company, Bob Express, against him. The reason for this decision was not provided by the agency's counsel.

After entering his plea, Justice Awogboro convicted the defendant on a four-count charge of tampering with N490,000 by spraying it.

During the court proceedings, Bobrisky was dressed in a black gown and had his head covered with a black veil. He was accompanied by 10 armed EFCC operatives who prevented journalists from taking his pictures.
