Lagos State Command of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) has said that crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, is in a shared cell and not a one-bedroom flat or an en suite style cell as rumoured.

The controversial personality is serving a six-month jail term for abuse and mutilation of naira notes.

“Idris has been allocated a shared cell with other convicted inmates as there are no en-suite or ‘one bedroom flat’ style cells in the Custodial Centre as the cell blocks infrastructure are built as shared buildings, to accommodate multiple inmates.

“The convict is remanded in a male Custodial Centre and observes all regulations and rules in place at the centre especially with regards to dress code. He wears male designated correctional clothing for convicted inmates.

“Idris is being treated just as every other inmate without any special amenities or privilege accorded,” the statement said.

In a subsequent conversation with Channels TV, Oladokun debunked a viral post on social media which claimed that Bobrisky donated chairs to the correctional centre.
