Falz Denies Bobrisky’s Claims of Prison Help Amid Leaked Audio
Nigerian rapper and activist Folarin Falana, popularly known as Falz, has addressed allegations involving cross-dresser Bobrisky during his time in prison.
According to reports, Bobrisky was imprisoned for three months after pleading guilty to charges of naira mutilation following his arrest by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
He was released on August 5, 2024.
The controversy arose when, on September 24, 2024, social critic and activist Martins Otse, better known as VeryDarkMan, leaked an alleged voice recording of Bobrisky.
In the audio, Bobrisky claimed that Falz and his father, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), helped to get the EFCC to drop money laundering charges against him while he was incarcerated.
In response to the widespread public reactions to the leaked recording, Falz, through his family’s law firm, Falana & Falana’s Chambers, firmly denied having initiated any contact with Bobrisky during his time in prison.
The legal statement clarified that Bobrisky had only reached out to Falz to request financial assistance of N3 million.
According to the statement, Bobrisky wanted the funds to pay certain officials so he could be placed in the VIP section of the correctional facility.
Falz’s lawyers also took the opportunity to criticize VeryDarkMan for spreading what they described as reckless and unverified allegations without making any effort to reach out for clarification.
The letter, now viral on social media, emphasized Falz’s innocence in the matter and urged for more responsible journalism, especially regarding sensitive issues like this.
This development has sparked further discussions about the role of activists and celebrities in controversial matters, as well as the importance of verifying information before publication.
Falz, known for his social activism and outspoken stance on political issues, continues to maintain his innocence and integrity amid the ongoing dispute.
Nigerian content creator GehGeh has spoken about the recent controversy involving Yul Edochie and Judy Austin, following claims made by Judy Austin’s ex-husband.
The story centers around claims that Yul takes care of Judy’s children from her former marriage.
GehGeh then shared his thoughts on the statement “I listened to Judy Austin’s side of the story, and she said the children she brought from her previous marriage are now your responsibility. If that thing is true, bro, you go cry o.”
“Don’t carry another man’s child responsibility when he is still alive. Don’t try it. The same thing the previous man passed through, you can still pass through it.”
Nigerian singer Davido has reacted to backlash after he drew attention to the happenings and insecurity in Nigeria.
Hausa singer Dauda Kahutu Rarara shared his thoughts on Davido’s actions and claimed that the singer was insensitive to the issue.
In response, Davido stated “Damn it, every Nigerian should not stay silent about the insecurity plaguing the nation, nor should they prevent others from voicing their concerns openly.”
Nigerian actress Dayo Amusa has spoken out against Peter Obi, questioning his motives and claiming that while he criticizes the government, he keeps his own plans for the country hidden.
The actress reacted to a recent interview Peter Obi gave and stated that he was keeping his plans private.
“It’s very obvious you don’t want people to vote for you; that is why you want to keep your plans to your chest. It’s not a secret affair. We want to know what you’re going to do differently. I watched the podcast with Rufai; it wasn’t inspiring!”
