Known for his extravagant lifestyle and audacious demeanor, Nigerian social media star Bobrisky has grabbed headlines once more, but not for his typical antics. In an unexpected development, the influencer was allegedly detained by immigration officials at the Seme Border while trying to flee the nation.
Bobrisky’s arrest coincides with his being under increasing legal pressure due to bribery and money laundering accusations. The House of Representatives has launched an investigation into these allegations, prompting many to surmise that Bobrisky was attempting to flee the heat by entering the Benin Republic.
The influencer has been in the news lately for reportedly paying the EFCC to forgo filing charges against him, a claim he vehemently disputes. His abrupt arrest has escalated the drama to a new level after his absence from a recent hearing heightened suspicions.
Even though Bobrisky’s team has not yet issued a statement about the arrest, everyone is watching the proceedings intently since they are curious about what this implies.
