The self-proclaimed transgender and crossdresser, Idris Olanrewaju Okuneye popularly known as Bobrisky, has pleaded guilty to the charges of Naira abuse.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission had on Thursday filed six counts of money laundering and abuse of Naira.

But before the charge was read to the defendant, EFCC’s prosecution counsel Suleiman Suleiman, prayed the court to strick out counts five and six (Money laundering charges) and arraigned him on counts one to four.

Consequently Justice Abimbola Awogboro struck out counts five and six.

Bobrisky was then arraigned on counts one to four to which he pleaded guilty.

When he was asked if he understood the charge that was read to him, he said,” yes, I am guilty”.
