Eyewitnesses have shared more details on how Nigerian crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, was arrested after an attempt to cross the Seme Border failed.
Naija News reported that the Nigeria Immigration Service, NIS, confirmed the arrest of Bobrisky at the Seme Border on Monday.
The Public Relations Officer of the Service, Mr Kenneth Udo, said Bobrisky was arrested because he “is a person of interest over recent issues of public concern.”
Speaking with NAN, an eyewitness said the crossdresser arrived at the departure axis of the border post around 1.30 am on Monday in a black Mercedes Benz SUV.
According to the sources, Bobrisky was first stopped by Port Health officials on duty, but the driver didn’t stop until he got to the Immigration checkpoint.
The source said, “Idris handed over his passport to the driver for stamping at the Nigeria Immigration Service, NIS post.
“The immigration surveillance officer, identified as Yusuf, while going through the passport, detected that the person inside the vehicle was Bobrisky.
“He called the most senior officer on duty to the scene and they secretly invited the Controller of Immigration, Seme Command, Mr Muhammad Adamu, to the scene.
“The surveillance officer then went back to invite Bobrisky for capture to stamp the passport.
“On getting to the surveillance unit for capturing, he was taken to the controller’s office for questioning.”
Another source told the aforementioned publication that Bobrisky’s lawyer later came to Seme to inquire why the personnel of the immigration command arrested him.
The source said, “Bobrisky stayed inside the controller’s office until 4.00 pm when he was taken to Lagos State Command of NIS for further investigation.”
