- The Police have said they cannot arrest Bobrisky and other crossdressers in Nigeria because there is yet to be credible evidence that they have committed any crime
- Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the police spokesperson, said it is like proving a rape case in court; if any one of the required evidence is missing, the prosecutor will lose the case
- Adejobi maintained that Nigerian law did not prosecute cross-dressing and that the allegation that crossdressers in Nigerian are into something else must be proven with credible evidence
FCT, Abuja – The Nigeria Police Force has explained that Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobdrisky, and other crossdressers cannot be arrested because Nigeria’s constitution did not prohibit crossdressing.
Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the spokesperson of the Police, made the clarification while speaking on Channels Television’s “Politics Today” on Tuesday, April 2.
