In a recent revelation, the Deputy Controller of Kirikiri Prison, Michael Anugwa explained the decision to separate Nigerian internet personality and crossdresser, Bobrisky from the general prison population.

According to him, Bobrisky, who is known for his feminine appearance, was placed in a special holding area to protect him from potential harm. The Deputy Controller expressed concerns that placing Bobrisky in the general cell with other male inmates, many of whom are hardened criminals, could have led to rape or even death.

The officer highlighted that the prison houses a large number of dangerous convicts, including individuals serving time for violent crimes, sexual assault, and sodomy. These conditions made it imperative for the prison officials to prioritize Bobrisky’s safety.

The Deputy Controller mentioned that Bobrisky’s feminine features could have made him particularly vulnerable in an environment filled with inmates known for sexual aggression.

Michael Anugwa further stated that if a measure like this hadn’t been taken to protect Bobrisky, Nigerians would have still dragged them for exposing the crossdresser to danger.
