The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has disclosed what led to the arrest of controversial crossdresser Idris Okuneye, aka Bobrisky.

Society Reporters had earlier reported that Bobrisky was arrested on Thursday night at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos State.

He was arrested while attempting to flee Nigeria for London amid allegations of bribery against him.

He was later transferred from Lagos to Abuja for proper interrogation.

Explaining the reasons behind the arrest in a telephone conversation with SaharaReporters on Friday morning, the spokesman for the Commission, Mr Dele Oyewale, said Bobrisky was arrested because he refused to honour an invitation sent to him.

The EFCC official said the crossdresser was arrested in connection with the allegation of bribery against him.

“We arrested him last night and we took him to Abuja because our team investigators are in Abuja,” the EFCC spokesman said.

He continued: “He was trying to run away from mentioning those he said collected bribe from him. We have sent him invitation but he refused to honour our invitation and he was trying to leave the country.

“This was why we arrested him. We want him to come and mention the names of the official involved in the bribery but he has not shown up.”

When SaharaReporters enquired whether Bobrisky will be charged with bribery by the EFCC, Mr Oyewale said he did not have any information regarding that yet.

In October, we reported that Bobrisky had been arrested while attempting to escape to the Benin Republic.

we also reported that Bobrisky was arrested by the Customs service at the Seme-Nigerian border during a passport check.

His arrest at the border came a few hours before he was scheduled to attend a Senate panel of inquiry meeting regarding allegations against him.
