Bobrisky's Prison Life: Separating Fact from Fiction

The NCoS also emphasized that Bobrisky is being treated equally to all other inmates, with no special amenities or privileges. He is required to wear male-designated correctional clothing and follows the same rules and regulations as all other prisoners.

The Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) has set the record straight on the conditions of Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, who is currently serving a six-month prison sentence for abusing the naira notes. Contrary to reports that Bobrisky was enjoying a luxurious VIP apartment in the Kirikiri correctional centre, the NCoS has clarified that the convict is sharing a cell with other inmates, just like every other prisoner.

In a statement signed by its spokesperson, Rotimi Oladokun, the NCoS debunked the claims of a VIP apartment, stating that the cell block infrastructure in the facility is designed to accommodate multiple inmates. Bobrisky is entitled to the same reformative and rehabilitative programs as all other inmates, including educational and vocational training.

The NCoS also emphasized that Bobrisky is being treated equally to all other inmates, with no special amenities or privileges. He is required to wear male-designated correctional clothing and follows the same rules and regulations as all other prisoners. The Controller of Corrections, Lagos Command, has urged the public to disregard the malicious publication.

A source from the correctional centre confirmed that Bobrisky is being treated equally and has undergone the same examination as all other inmates upon admission. The outcome of the examination revealed no realignment of gender or genital organs.

Bobrisky was arrested and detained by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on April 3, 2024, and convicted by a Federal High Court in Lagos on April 5, 2024, after pleading guilty to charges of naira abuse.

In conclusion, the NCoS has clarified that Bobrisky is serving his sentence in a shared cell with other inmates, without any special treatment or privileges. The public is advised to disregard any misleading publications and focus on the facts.
