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.
