Bobrisky Claims N5 Million Paid for Pardon in Money Laundering Case
Controversial cross-dresser Idris Olanrewaju Okuneye, widely known as Bobrisky, has alleged that he paid N5 million upfront to an unnamed Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) in hopes of securing a Federal Government pardon for money laundering charges filed against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The claim was revealed in a leaked audio recording shared on October 7, 2024, by social media influencer Martins Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan (VDM). The recording, made on May 16, 2024, features Bobrisky stating that the SAN initially requested N10 million, but he could not raise the full amount due to his account being 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 allegedly said. He added that his godfather provided him with N5 million, which was sent to the SAN two weeks prior, and that the request for pardon has already been submitted.
Last week, it was reported that SAN Femi Falana denied any connection to Bobrisky, stating that he had no dealings with the cross-dresser and that their only communication was through his son, Folarin Falana, also known as Falz.
Nigerian singer Harry song speaks on the rising insecurity in the country and shared that increasing the security income can help improve their performance in securing the country.
The singer took to social media and urged the government “TO MR PRESIDENT. IF YOU REALLY, TRULY WANNA END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA? Start by increasing the salary and allowances of the armed forces. The salary of the army, the navy, the air force, the Nigerian Police Force is too small, too shameful. Increase their salary, this job should be worth dying for. Increase their salaries ooooooo pls and pls.”
Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye from the former duo P-Square, shares his greatest fear. During a recent interview, the singer spoke about his fears and revealed that he is not afraid of death.
Instead, he said he is scared of poverty and has this fear because he has experienced it before. “I am not afraid of death. The only thing I am afraid of in this life is poverty, of being broke.
“I have tasted it [poverty] before. I have been in our house with my parents and siblings, and a bulldozer came and demolished it.”
Popular Nigerian singer, Davido, makes headlines for his gesture of goodwill. It can be noted that during the afternoon performance, the singer paused for one minute of silence to honor his colleague Wizkid’s mother.
The singer paused during his performance and said “Personally, I have lost many loved ones, people close to me, so I understand how Wizkid is feeling right now. May his mother, our mother because she was dear to me, rest in peace.”
This gesture touched many fans, as they were in awe of the singer showing a kind heart despite the usual rivalry between their fan bases.
