Controversial Nigerian singer Portable has publicly called on crossdresser Bobrisky to reconsider her lifestyle and “repent from sinful ways.”
Portable’s remarks come in the wake of a series of legal and personal troubles facing Bobrisky, whose real name is Idris Okuneye.
Bobrisky was released from prison on August 5 after serving part of a six-month sentence handed down on April 12 for her involvement in the abuse of the Nigerian currency, the naira.
Her current ordeal began when social media influencer Martin Otse, known as ‘VeryDarkMan’, shared an alleged audio recording online in which Bobrisky purportedly claimed she had bribed officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) with ₦15 million to drop charges against her.
Bobrisky, a prominent social media personality who identifies as transgender, has since denied these accusations.
She dismissed the audio recording as “fake” and insisted that she had not paid any bribe, stating, “I served my term in prison.”
The bribery allegations, however, prompted the EFCC to summon both Bobrisky and Otse for questioning. EFCC Chairman Ola Olukoyede has also ordered an investigation into the claims, further fueling the controversy.
Adding to the situation, rapper Falz corroborated part of Otse’s claims in a warning letter he sent to the activist.
In the letter, Falz revealed that Bobrisky had allegedly reached out to him seeking ₦3 million to pay certain officials in exchange for a VIP section in prison, a request he declined.
As Bobrisky battles both legal scrutiny and public judgment, she recently revealed that she is struggling with suicidal thoughts.
