An Immigration source at the Nigerian-Benin Republic border has provided details on the arrest of controversial crossdresser Bobrisky during a passport check at the Seme border on October 21. According to reports from Premium Times, the source revealed that Bobrisky was apprehended around midnight and detained until the following morning before being transferred to the Lagos zone of the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) in Ikeja.

The source explained, “He was arrested at midnight, detained until this morning, and is currently being moved to the Lagos zone of the NIS in Ikeja. He handed his passport to someone to stamp for him, but the officer noticed his name immediately and requested that he come down from the vehicle.”

Bobrisky’s arrest is linked to an ongoing investigation involving a Committee of the House of Representatives, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), and the Nigerian Correctional Service. The case centers on allegations of bribery, with previous claims suggesting that Bobrisky had paid bribes to avoid serving a proper jail sentence. As the investigation continues, the incident at the Seme border has further complicated Bobrisky’s legal troubles.
