Nigerian transgender and social media personality Okuneye Idris, popularly known as Bobrisky, was removed from an Amsterdam-bound KLM flight on Thursday night, as shown by a viral video on X platform.
This was after social commentator Isaac Fayose, the brother of former Ekiti State Governor, on Thursday, shared a photo of himself and Bobrisky as they boarded the same flight to London, CHANNELS TV reports.
“Look who’s on the same flight with me to London, @Bobrisky222,” Fayose shared on his Instagram handle.
However, in a viral video seen on X, Bobrisky was later removed from the flight, reportedly flying to London, by airport officials.
After he was forcefully removed, the popular cross-dresser posted on his Instagram page to alert followers about the development.
Bobrisky alleged that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission was responsible for his detention.
He wrote, “Nigerians help me, EFCC just arrested me. I’m badly injured.”
The latest development comes after he was intercepted at the Sème border while allegedly attempting to flee the country on 22 October.
The controversy surrounding Bobrisky began in April 2024, when he was sentenced to six months in prison by the Federal High Court in Lagos for naira abuse.
