Sowore Alleges Secret Agenda Against Bobrisky
Omoyele Sowore, an activist and online newspaper publisher, has protested the six-month jail term given to controversial crossdresser Idris Okuneye, also known as Bobrisky. He criticized the court’s focus on Bobrisky, highlighting the absence of punishment for those truly responsible for damaging the nation’s economy and currency.
Sowore, who ran for president under the African Action Congress (AAC) in both the 2019 and 2023 general elections, observed that the effort invested in prosecuting and imprisoning Bobrisky by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) indicates that his true offense couldn’t have been merely spraying Naira at a party.
The activist, who recently reunited with his family in the United States after about five years of separation due to his arrest and detention in Nigeria on alleged terrorism charges (which have been dropped), posted on his Facebook page on Friday, expressing skepticism about how the EFCC will handle cases involving ‘real financial criminals’ prosecuted since 2007.
Sowore wrote: “The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission is gleefully announcing that Bobrisky has been jailed for six months without an option of a fine for “mutilating” the Nigerian currency, the Naira.
“The real people destroying the economy, like former President
Muhammadu Buhari, his former Attorney General, Abubakar Malami, SAN, his former personal secretary, Tunde Sabiu, and even the former Central Bank of Nigeria governor, @Godwin Emefiele (who was just now granted an N50M bail in Lagos for an offence involving N50billion), are yet to be jailed for the massive economic damage they did to ruin Nigeria. The energy put into prosecuting and jailing a crossdresser, Bobrisky, shows his real offence could not have been spraying Naira at a party.
“Let’s see how the EFCC handles cases involving real financial criminals, a long list being prosecuted since 2007-who destroyed the naira in the near future. #RevolutionNow.”
