Prominent Nigerian Who Condemned Bobrisky’s Arrest Comes Under Social Media Fire
By Emily Ogah
Former Chairman of the Nigerian National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), Professor Chidi Anselm Odinkalu, has come under fire following his comment on Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC’s) arrest of Crossdresser, Idris Okuneye aka Bobrisky.
Recall that on Thursday, the internet was set agog after the EFCC arrested Bobrisky for offences bordering on abuse of the naira, spraying of naira notes, and currency mutilation.
Reacting to this development, Professor Chidi took to his official X account on Thursday stating, “Yesterday, @NigeriaGov & @NERCNG hiked energy beyond the reach of most #Nigerians.
“Today, @officialEFCC orchestrates a lynching of #Bobrisky. Ppl who can no longer afford electricity are hailing them because, apparently Bobby is responsible for their poverty.”
However, the Professor’s comment didn’t go down well with a huge section of Nigerians on social media. See their reactions below:
@chukz152 reacted, “Do you have any hiding business with bobrisky why are you pained that his been arrested.”
@IBITOYE90 said, “Why is Chidi blood pressure rising because of Bobrisky arrest. Is he a model you want your boy to be? Abeg channel your energy to a better issue.”
@SegunAdetula reacted, “The way you’re pained on his arrest ehn, one needs to ask questions OOOO.”
ogidiolu2 stated, “Senseless reaction from a disgruntled man sacked from bus offi- cial post, so if a crime is committed it shouldn’t be handled because a private company increased price of its service?”
anyi_way1 said, “One of the Bob chairman don talk.”
mhiz.mathilda1 snapped, “Defending a cross dresser, same person who pot-rays same s£x online? You call it arresting someone they don’t like? Y’all ain’t normal honestly. So where are the men that keep saying Godforbid to same s£x? So y’all just be capping and doing same thing at the back.”
oraclegodwayne reacted hilariously, “Abeg make una begin dey write list o, them don dey come out of the closet.”
kiddiesheadtotoeempire reacted, “He said “Bobby” hmmmmm, sounds like a pet name to me.”
real_flexy reacted, “Chidi, this ur audacity dey off me. Is there something you want us to know?”
