Nigerian crossdresser, Idris Okuneye better known as Bobrisky has been quietly moved to Kirikiri prison after his sentencing last week.
According to reports, the Nigerian Correctional Service has transferred Bobrisky from the Ikoyi Correctional Center to Kirikiri prison. According to a report by Leadership, the crossdresser was moved directly to Kirikiri prison last weekend.
The source further explained that the transfer is part of the standard procedure due to Kirikiri’s larger capacity compared to Ikoyi and for security purposes.
It is procedural that he is moved to Kirikiri since it is an expansive prison compared to what we have here”, the source said.
It was reported last week that following his sentencing, Bobrisky was taken to the Correctional center where he was to spend the next 6 months. The NCoS had said that the crossdresser would be incarcerated in the male section of its custodian facility, noting how the crossdresser identified himself as a male when being questioned in court.
Despite concerns regarding his safety due to his gender preference, Correctional officers assured the public that Bobrisky would be adequately protected from potential harm.
