JUST IN: Bobrisky pleads guilty to naira abuse charge, denies money laundering
Popular controversial cross-dresser, Idris Okuneye, alias Bobrisky, on Friday, pleaded guilty to the charges of naira abuse.
Trustbase News had reported that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC filed six counts of money laundering and abuse of naira against him.
But before the charge was read to the defendant, the EFCC’s prosecution counsel Suleiman Suleiman, prayed the court to stike out counts five and six (money laundering charges) and arraigned him on counts one to four.
Consequently, Justice Abimbola Awogboro struck out counts five and six.
Bobrisky was then arraigned on counts one to four to which he pleaded guilty.
When he was asked if he understood the charge that was read to him, he said,” Yes, I am guilty.”
