The Lagos State command of the Nigerian Correctional Service has clarified that the controversial cross-dresser, Idris Okuneye, aka Bobrisky is not enjoying any special treatment in its facility.

Bobrisky is currently serving a six-month prison sentence over abuse of the naira notes. Over the weekend, a news platform reported that the convict occupied a newly built VIP apartment in the Kirikiri correctional centre.

In a statement by its spokesperson, Rotimi Oladokun, on Saturday, NCoS refuted the claim.

Oladokun noted that Bobrisky shared the same cell with other convicted inmates, adding that there were no en-suite or “one-bedroom flat” style cells in the Custodial Centre.

The spokesman revealed that cell block infrastructure in the facility was built as shared buildings to accommodate multiple inmates.
