“EFCC Explains Money Laundering Charge Against Bobrisky”

Published

on

Bilikisu Buhari, a representative of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), testified before the House of Representatives committee investigating allegations against Idris Okuneye, better known as Bobrisky.

During the session, Buhari responded to claims made by social media personality Verydarkman, who presented an audio recording purportedly featuring Bobrisky’s voice. Verydarkman accused the crossdresser of paying N15 million to the EFCC to have a money laundering charge dropped.

In response, Buhari clarified that the money laundering charges against Bobrisky were withdrawn following his court confessional statement regarding naira abuse. She emphasized that the EFCC acted within its legal framework, amending the charges based on the findings of its investigation.

Buhari firmly denied any allegations of financial inducement, stating that no bribes were accepted by any EFCC officials involved in the case. She reiterated that all decisions made by the EFCC were in accordance with the agency’s core principles and its commitment to maintaining integrity.

She also refuted Bobrisky’s claims of a Post-No-Debit restriction on his bank accounts, calling them false.

The committee chairman, Ginger Onwusibe, noted that in the next session, the individual responsible for the audio recording should be present to provide additional context. Despite being invited to present evidence or identify EFCC officers who allegedly solicited a bribe, Bobrisky did not attend the hearing.

The committee has now adjourned the session indefinitely as it continues to probe the matter further.
