How Bobrisky’s attempt to cross Nigerian border to Seme failed – Witnesses

 More details have emerged of how popular crossdresser, Idris
Okuneye, also known as Bobrisky, was arrested at Seme Border on Monday.

 

Witnesses told NAN that Bobrisky arrived at the departure
axis of the border post around 1.30am on Monday in a black Mercedes Benz SUV.

 

According to the sources, Bobrisky was first stopped by Port
Health officials on duty but the driver didn’t stop until he got to the
Immigration checkpoint.

 

“Idris handed over his passport to the driver for stamping
at the Nigeria Immigration Service, NIS post.

 

“The immigration surveillance officer, identified as Yusuf,
while going through the passport, detected that the person inside the vehicle
was Bobrisky.

 

“He called the most senior officer on duty to the scene and
they secretly invited the Controller of Immigration, Seme Command, Mr Muhammad
Adamu, to the scene.

 

“The surveillance officer then went back to invite Bobrisky
for capture to stamp the passport.

 

“On getting to the surveillance unit for capturing, he was
taken to the controller’s office for questioning,” a source told NAN.

 

Another source told NAN that Bobrisky’s lawyer later came to
Seme to inquire why he was arrested by the personnel of the immigration
command.

 

“Bobrisky stayed inside the controller’s office until 4.00
pm when he was taken to Lagos State Command of NIS for further investigation,”
the source said.

 

Recall that NIS on Monday confirmed the arrest of Bobrisky
at the Seme Border.

 

The Public Relations Officer of the Service, Mr Kenneth Udo,
said Bobrisky was arrested because he “is a person of interest over recent
issues of public concern”.

 

Udo, in a statement issued in Abuja, said: “In keeping with
its commitment to securing the borders, NIS intercepted Bobrisky at the Seme
Border over an attempt to exit the country.

 

He said that Bobrisky was undergoing interrogation and would
be handed over to the appropriate authorities for further action.
