Famous Nigerian controversial cross-dresser, Idris Olanrewaju Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, has claimed he paid N5 million upfront to an unnamed Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), to secure a Federal Government pardon for money laundering charges brought against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
The audio was leaked on Monday, 7 October, 2024 by social media influencer, Martins Otse aka VeryDarkMan, VDM.
According to VDM, the call recording was made on Thursday, 16 May, 2024.
In the audio, Bobrisky claimed the SAN asked for N10 million, but he was unable to raise the full amount as his account had been frozen by the EFCC.
“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,” Bobrisky purportedly said.
“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.”
Recall that last week, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Femi Falana, denied knowing Bobrisky, insisting that he never had any business with Bobrisky and that the crossdresser only spoke to his son, Folarin Falana aka Falz.
