Reacting to the arrest of Nigerian crossdresser Okuneye Idris Olanrewaju, also known as Bobrisky, by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), is notorious social media activist VeryDarkMan.
According to EFCC spokesperson Dele Oyewale, Bobrisky was detained by the anti-graft agency on April 3 at his home in Pinnock Estate, Lagos State. THE MATRIX previously claimed that Bobrisky’s detention was made on the grounds of currency mutilation and inappropriate handling of the Nigerian currency.
In response, VeryDarkMan posted on social media, urging everyone with ties to Bobrisky to hasten the process of his arrest.
He said, “Anyone connected to Bobrisky wouldn’t dare make a call. I want to see where your [his] connection gets to. I want to know your [his] connection. Your connection will be exhausted. He was arrested for a simple thing. He was abusing the naira, spraying the naira, and stepping on the naira. Another petition will still be filed.”

In a recent interview, the Police Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, explained that the police cannot arrest crossdressers as cross-dressing itself is not considered a crime in Nigeria.
Sharing a video message on his Instagram page, VeryDarkMan stated that since the police view cross-dressing as legal, he would embrace it and even use the female restroom.
He said, “When I came out of detention, I read somewhere that it was Tonto Dikeh who detained me. She can never detain me, I don’t care about her connection. The truth is that I was detained for the video I made calling for Bobrisky’s arrest and my claims that he was being protected by gay lawmakers. My detention is just a little sacrifice. They will still arrest me for my subsequent videos.
“Since the police say crossdressing is legal, I will soon start crossdressing. I will give them one week after I drop my petition against Bobrisky. If Bobrisky is not arrested, I will become a crossdresser and use the female restroom.”
