Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, on Thursday, reportedly arrested controversial crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky.
The social media influencer took to his Instagram page on Thursday night to announce his arrest, moments after disclosing his departure from Nigeria.
BobBobrisky was reportedly apprehended by EFCC officials while transiting through the Murtala Mohammed International Airport in Lagos en route to London.
Bobrisky, in the late-night post, cried out to Nigerians for help, claiming to have been badly injured during the incident.

“Nigerians help me, EFCC just arrested me. I’m badly injured,” he wrote.
Earlier on Thursday, social commentator and younger brother to former Ekiti State governor, Isaac Fayose,
posted a photo of himself and Bobrisky as they boarded the same flight to London.
“Look who’s on the same flight with me to London, @Bobrisky222,” Fayose shared on his Instagram handle.
Bobrisky was later removed from the flight, reportedly flying to London, by airport officials, as seen in a video circulating online.
Recall that days earlier, the crossdresser was intercepted at the Sème border by the Nigerian Immigration while allegedly attempting to flee the country on 22 October.
Bobrisky’s ordeal followed an audio recording posted by critic VeryDarkMan, alleging that the cross-dresser paid top-rank prison officials to secure a private prison outside the Kirikiri prison, following his conviction for abusing naira in April.
Also, the leaked audio also claimed Bobrisky paid some EFCC officials to drop money laundering charges against him, through the help of popular singer, Falz and his legal luminary father, Femi Falana.
Bobrisky, however, denied making these claims, stating he was not responsible for the leaked audio and urged the Falanas to hold VeryDarkMan accountable instead.
