Social media influencer and activist, Martins Otse, aka VeryDarkMan, has released another purported call recording of controversial crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, aka Bobrisky.
In September, Daily Trust had reported how VeryDarkMan shared an alleged audio of Bobrisky, claiming he bribed some Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) officials with N15 million to drop the money laundering charge against him.
Bobrisky, however, dismissed the audio, stressing that the claim that he was never in prison was false and should be ignored.
In the new audio leak released on Monday, VeryDarkMan revealed that Bobrisky had a conversation with another individual on May 16.

Bobrisky allegedly admitted to not being in prison but rather in a well-furnished apartment near the prison where he had access to his mobile phone.
He reiterated that the EFCC dropped the charges against him after discovering the substantial amount of money in his account.
He said: “I don’t have enough time because I don’t talk to people, but I want to talk to you about this because I haven’t been speaking to anyone or replying to messages sent to me. I don’t want anybody to know I have my phone, but you know what happened to me.
“So, before the EFCC, of course, they were investigating me about the cars, money, and everything, all this while. I knew they would come for me one day because of all the noise, but it’s okay.
“When they were investigating me, they blocked my account, they froze my account. Obviously, they didn’t want me to carry out any transactions during their ongoing investigation. Initially, they added money laundering charges because of the funds they found in my account and the money passed through it. So, they had some money, but we were able to plead with them and give them some funds to drop the money laundering charges against me.”
Speaking further, Bobrisky alleged that the money laundering charges were merely an attempt by the EFCC to detain him unjustly.
In the leaked audio, he expressed his shock at being taken to court simply for spending his hard-earned money.
“I can’t be facing money laundering charges—God forbid. I know they were just looking for something to hold against me because I was not the only one spraying money, but they chose to target me for that, which is strange. But I’m strong and ready for whatever comes my way. One thing that made me happy was that after their investigation, they realised I was not involved in money laundering, fraud, or any illegal dealings with politicians.
“They did a thorough check and couldn’t find any evidence against me. They went to my house, seized my car and everything. During their investigation, they saw the people I did business with. I earned all the money I have legitimately through my influencing work. I can easily make around £10,000 from one job.
“They don’t know how much I charge, but I clarified that I can charge as much as $100,000 for influencing. So, if you think you can’t do it, remember not all fingers are equal. Some people do it, and God blesses them, too.”
