Famous Nigerian cross-dresser Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, has been sentenced to six months in jail with no option of a fine.
Justice Abimbola Awogboro of the Federal High Court in Lagos gave the judgment on Friday morning, April 12.
The judge brought down the hammer after Bobrisky had pleaded guilty to a four-count charge of Naira abuse brought against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Trouble started for Bobrisky after he sprayed money at the premiere of Ajakaju, a keenly awaited film by actress and producer Eniola Ajao, at Film One Circle Mall, in the upmarket Lagos district of Lekki last month.
Videos of the event were widely shared on social media.
The videos may have put pressure on the operatives of the anti-graft agency to take action.
Bobrisky was consequently arraigned in court and sentenced to 6 month imprisonment.
