Officials of the Nigerian Correctional Service, NCS have revealed how Nigerian Crossdresser, Bobrisky will be held in prison after admitting male gender in court.
DAILY GIST reported earlier that Bobrisky was sentenced to six-months imprisonment with no option of fine over naira abuse.
During the court proceedings, the self-acclaimed “Mummy of Lagos” admitted before the Federal High Court in Lagos State that he is a man.
This has added a twist to the controversy surrounding his gender identity.
In 2023, Bobrisky attracted attention when he attended his father’s funeral in Ijebu Igbo, Ogun State, dressed as a man.
Recently, he was rumoured to have undergone surgeries to transition to a woman.
During the trial, Justice Abimbola Awogboro quizzed Bobrisky about his sex, to which he responded, “I am a man, My Lord.”
Subsequently, the judge sentenced him to a six-month jail term without the option of a fine, starting from March 24, 2024, the day of his arrest.
“Since he admitted to being a male in court, then we have to abide by what was submitted in court,” the correctional spokesperson told The Gazette on Friday
Prison officials also said Bobrisky will be offered adequate protection from other inmates who might want to sexually violate him.
“He shouldn’t be afraid of sexual assault from other male inmates because our men can give him protection.”
Bobrisky, posting a video of him clutching what appeared to be bosoms and posing half-naked in a bathrobe, has given his five million Instagram followers the impression that he has transitioned to a female.
In one of his photos on Instagram, he wrote, “My journey transitioning into a woman has been going smooth, no health issues, everything is going smooth for me.”
