Controversial Nigerian crossdresser, Okuneye Idris Olanrewaju, popularly known as Bobrisky, is currently in detention at the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) Annex in Alagbon, Lagos.

The highly controversial personality who has been in the news lately was reportedly arrested by officials of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) while attempting to exit the country through the Seme border. Sources confirmed that he was taken to the FCID for safekeeping on Monday night.
A reliable source revealed that Bobrisky was brought into the FCID facility around 10 p.m. on Monday after spending the previous night in detention. “He is in detention at the FCID, Alagbon.
