The crossdresser was accused of laundering N180 million with his account domiciled with Ecobank.

In a press statement shared by the EFCC, Bobrisky allegedly tampered with N400,000 by spraying it at actress Eniola Ajao’s Ajakaju movie premiere.

In the money laundering count against Bobrisky, it was revealed that the crossdresser traded under the name and style of Bob Express between September 1, 2021, and April 4, 2024, in Lagos but failed to submit a declaration of the activities of the company to the Special Control Unit Against Money Laundering. It was also stated that within that time period, N127 million was paid into the company’s account.

The EFCC’s press statement reads in part:

“In count six, Bobrisky is also accused of failing to submit a declaration of the activities of the company within the same period when another N53m was paid into the company’s account thereby committing an offence contrary to Section 6(1)(a), and Section 19(1) (f) of the Money Laundering (Prevention And Prohibition) Act and punishable under Section 19 (2) (b) of the same Act.”
