Complex Reasons We Cannot Arrest Bobrisky – Police (Video)

In an interview on Channels TV, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, a spokesperson for the police, addressed questions regarding the status of cross-dressing in Nigeria and why the police is yet to arrest the most prominent exemplar of that culture, Bobrisky.

He clarified that cross-dressing itself is not a criminal offense in Nigeria, but rather being queer is considered unlawful. Adejobi emphasized that without concrete evidence linking cross-dressers to the LGBTQ community, it is challenging to pursue legal action against them.

Highlighting the legal intricacies of the matter, Adejobi stressed that without substantial evidence, prosecution in court would likely be unsuccessful. This stance underlines the nuanced approach required when dealing with issues of personal expression and identity.
