On Monday, the House of Representatives commenced an investigation into the alleged N15 million bribery involving controversial cross-dresser Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky.

The hearing, led by the House Committees on Financial Crimes and Reformatory Institutions, began at 2:05 p.m. after the arrival of Martins Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan, and his lawyer, Deji Adeyanju.

According to a report by PREMIUM TIMES, VeryDarkMan leaked an audio recording on Instagram, allegedly featuring Bobrisky recounting his six-month jail term experience. The investigation seeks to clarify the circumstances surrounding the bribery claims.



In the leaked audio, Bobrisky alleged that the EFCC collected N15 million from him to drop the money laundering charges against him.

He also alleged that he served his prison sentence in a private apartment after his godfather contacted the Comptroller General of the Nigerian Correctional Service.

The hearing, held by the House Committees on Financial Crimes and Reformatory Institutions, began around 2:05 p.m. following the arrival of Martins Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan, and his lawyer, Deji Adeyanju.

In the recording, Bobrisky also claimed that he never spent a day in prison after his conviction, stating that his godfather arranged for him to serve his term in a lodge instead of jail, a comment that implicated the Nigerian Correctional Services.
