Okuneye Idris, popularly known as Bobrisky, has reportedly fallen ill while in detention at the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) Annex in Alagbon, Lagos. After spending a night in a police cell, Bobrisky was rushed to Falomo Police Hospital for medical attention.
According to a source, Bobrisky complained of “breast” pain and was transferred to the hospital around 2:00 p.m. in an ambulance with the plate number LND 339L. The source described Bobrisky’s appearance, saying he wore a black gown, covered his face with a shawl, and lay down in the ambulance.
Bobrisky’s arrest occurred on Monday night by the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) at the Seme border in Lagos. The NIS spokesperson, Kenneth Udo, confirmed the arrest, describing Bobrisky as “a person of interest.” Udo stated that the NIS intercepted Bobrisky as part of their efforts to secure Nigeria’s borders.
Detectives are currently investigating the circumstances surrounding Bobrisky’s arrest, and there are indications that he may remain in detention. The FCID is expected to obtain a remand order for his continued detention. A statement from the FCID regarding Bobrisky’s situation is expected later today.
The development has sparked concern about Bobrisky’s well-being and the reasons behind his attempted departure from the country. Further updates on the situation are awaited as the investigation unfolds.
