Crossdresser Idris Okuneye, aka Bobrisky, has warned Nigerians against abusing the national currency, the naira, to avoid ending up in prison like him.

The controversial crossdresser was handed a six-month jail term in April for abusing the naira.

A video surfaced online indicating his release from prison. It was unclear if his sentence was commuted.

“You have to follow the rules; abide by the law. Don’t spray money, or else you’ll end up as a landlord inside Kirikiri,” Bobrisky stated in an interview with Goldmynetv.

The crossdresser stressed, “Trust me, it’s not just about killing; even something light like this can actually take you there.”

Bobrisky said he missed his fans and “can’t wait to give you what you’ve missed.” 

He added, “I’m focusing on good energy, my fans, and my friends who stood by me. So many things are coming.”
