The EFCC arrested Bobrisky at Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos State as he attempted to board a KLM flight bound for Amsterdam.
Idris Okunneye, the popular Nigerian crossdresser, who is better known as Bobrisky, has stated that his ordeal with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission began after accepting the best dressed female award at the movie premiere of Nollywood actress, Eniola Ajao.
Bobrisky recently faced scrutiny over allegations that he paid for special treatment while serving a jail sentence for naira abuse. Viral audio suggested that he bribed officials of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) to secure preferential conditions in prison.

He was subsequently transported to the EFCC headquarters in Abuja, where he faced questioning over allegations of bribing EFCC officers to drop previous money laundering charges.
In a post via his Instagram page, Bobrisky stated that he would never get involved in any price or award belonging to a female.
He wrote, “My problem started from when I collected best dressed female with N1 million price. For my life if I see award for best dressed female I go disappear from that location. Everyone know the truth that I am a baddie with class, you wanna compete with me? your mummy never, but when problem wan too much, I run”
