The House of Representatives has resolved to invite Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, over the bribery allegation against the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) as exposed by a whistle-blower, Martins Vincent Otse, aka VeryDarkMan.
In the video VeryDarkMan shared on social media, Bobrisky claimed that some EFCC officers collected N15 million from him to drop money laundering charges. In the audio played by VeryDardMan, Bobrisky also claimed that he did not spend his sentencing in prison.
How many months Bobrisky spent in prison?
Bobrisky's past troubles with the law are well-documented. He was sentenced to six months in prison for mutilating naira notes at social events. Despite his history, the EFCC is taking his allegations seriously.
However, the House of Representatives stepped into the matter to address the allegation against the anti-graft agency and invite the parties involved, including the socialite, Bobrisky.
On interrogation day, when VeryDarkMan and the EFCC representatives were present, Bobrisky was absent and was only represented by his lawyer.
Why was Bobrisky absent before the House committee?
However, the socialite's lawyer claimed that Bobrisky was not feeling fine, and the House of Representatives demanded a medical report on his state of health while resolving that he was expected to appear before its committee.
The allegations raised in the viral voice notes shared by VeryDarkMan have continued to generate reactions from concerned Nigerians. In the voice note, Bobrisky also incriminated Nigeria's popular human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, and his son, Folarin, known as Falz.
