Lagos High court sentences Bobrisky to six months in prison
Idris Olarewaju Okuneye, often known as Bobrisky, is a controversial crossdresser who was sentenced to six months in prison without the possibility of fines by the Federal High Court in Lagos on Friday for misusing the currency.
During the convict's punishment, Justice Abimbola Awogboro declared that the verdict will serve as a warning to those who would be found misusing or disfiguring naira.
When the judge inquired about his sex prior to the sentence, he promptly answered that he was a guy. The judge decided that the day of his arrest, March 24, 2024, was the start of the jail sentence.
You will remember that on April 5, the court found him guilty of misusing the naira currency that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission had brought against him.
As a result, the judge pushed up the sentencing to Tuesday, April 9, 2024. For the Eid-el-Fitr celebration, the Federal Government did, however, proclaim the day a public holiday.
