He said, “He is with us. We arrested him over currency mutilation and abuse of the Naira. He is in our facility in Lagos state.”
Meanwhile, Bobrisky has opened up on the reason he decided to change his gender from male to female.

According to him, he was selling unisex cloths during his undergraduate days at the University of Lagos and used crossdressing to market his wares.
Bobrisky disclosed this during an interview with veteran entertainer, Charly Boy.
The crossdresser said he didn’t envisage that crossdressing would lead him into becoming a transgender.
