Bobrisky was examined and the male biological features were the same – NCoS official

An official from the Nigerian Correctional Service has provided an update on the treatment of crossdresser, Bobrisky, while in prison.

Following Bobrisky’s sentencing to six months in prison for Naira abuse by Justice Abimbola Awogboro of the Federal High Court in Lagos, efforts have been made to ascertain his well-being in custody.

An official from the correctional facility, speaking to Punch, disclosed that Bobrisky was admitted into prison following the court’s decision. Upon admission, he underwent a medical examination, revealing no alteration in gender or genital anatomy. His biological male features remained unchanged.

He said; “Bobrisky made a public declaration that he was a male and court proceedings are public records. Every inmate brought into a facility during admission is examined.  He was equally examined and no realignment of gender or genital organ was discovered. The male biological features were the same.

“After that, a cell was allocated to him, and he had a certain number of inmates with him. A bed space was also allotted to him. It is just like a boarding house where your housemaster will issue you your personal belongings.

“When it is time for class, he attends. When it is time for food, he will go and get his portion. The same goes with prep and light out. He observes all these without preference. He has been going about his business just like other inmates since he was brought in here.

“He is not getting any five-star treatment and is not being protected from anybody. He follows the same rules and regulations just like every other inmate. Single cells of isolation cells are to prevent outbreaks of communicable diseases. In a male prison, homosexuality is outlawed and it is a grievous offence. Sodomy or homosexuality, is frowned upon here in the custodial centre. So any inmate that tries to violate him will face the law.”
