EntertainmentBobrisky was held in separate cell – Prison officer admitsPublished 4 days ago on September 30, 2024By Bamidele Akintola Michael Anugwa, the Deputy Controller of the Maximum Correctional Center, Kirikiri, Lagos, has admitted that popular Nigerian crossdresser Idris Okuneye, also known as Bobrisky, was held in a separate cell during his six-month sentence. Anugwa made this disclosure on Monday while addressing the House of Representatives Joint Committee on Financial Crimes and Reformatory Institutions. The admission came after allegations made by social media influencer, Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, who claimed in a viral video that Bobrisky had been provided with an apartment outside the correctional facility. Anugwa refuted these allegations, stating that Bobrisky was at no point housed outside the custodial center, but was instead placed in a separate cell within the correctional facility. Anugwa emphasized that the placement was in line with standard procedures for inmates who require special attention or pose particular concerns, but denied any preferential treatment in terms of housing Bobrisky outside the prison facility. His words: “Bobrisky was admitted on the 13th of April with a valid warrant and a transfer order from Ikoyi Correctional facility. “The warrant was given to me the same day of his conviction. The biometric was taken the next day because when he came was around 10:30 p.m. So it was done on the 13th of April 2024. “Idris spent 10 days at the Medium Correctional Center and was moved to maximum, because he refused to eat the prison food. “He then applied for self-feeding which was approved and Bobrisky nominated two persons to bring his food to the facility — Ogunleye Abiola and Moji Ogunleye. “During the admission, we discovered that Idris, though a man, had special features like breasts that would not allow us put him in the general cell. “We agreed to put him in a separate cell. While he was there he had a total of 39 visitors.”
