The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arraigned popular crossdresser Idris Olanrewaju Okuneye, also known as Bobrisky, at the Federal High Court in Lagos.

Upon the accusation being read, Bobrisky entered a guilty plea to the initial four counts, which concerned the misuse of Naira.

However, before the indictment was read, the EFCC’s counsel, Suleiman Suleiman, urged the court to strike out counts five and six, which involved money laundering charges.

Justice Abimbola Awogboro then dismissed counts five and six. This eased the way for Bobrisky‘s arraignment on only counts one through four, which dealt with naira abuse.

When the counts were read, Bobrisky was asked if he understood the charge, to which he replied, “Yes, I am guilty”.

The crossdresser has been in EFCC custody since Wednesday night after failing to meet the administrative bail issued to him on Thursday.
