Controversial Nigerian transgender socialite Okuneye Idris, popularly known as Bobrisky, has been hospitalized after reportedly complaining of severe “breast” pain while in detention at the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) Annex in Alagbon, Lagos.

After spending the night in a police cell, Bobrisky was transported to Falomo Police Hospital for urgent medical care.

According to Vanguard, a source within the FCID confirmed the incident, revealing that Bobrisky was transferred to the hospital around 2:00 p.m. in an ambulance.

“Bobrisky complained of ‘breast’ pain and was rushed to the Police Hospital in the Falomo area of Lagos around 2:00 p.m. in an ambulance with the plate number LND 339L. He wore a black gown, covered his face with a shawl, and lay down in the ambulance,” the source said.

The trip was described as a strategic move to avoid public scrutiny, particularly as the Commissioner of Police overseeing the Special Fraud Unit (SFU) had planned to transfer Bobrisky to his command.

Concerned about media attention, authorities arranged for a police ambulance, with an alternative plate number, LLD 339LP.

However, the urgency of Bobrisky’s condition prompted the team to prioritize his medical attention at Falomo Hospital before proceeding with the transfer to the SFU.

Sources indicated that Bobrisky’s complaint about breast pain arose shortly after the Commissioner of Police visited the command to supervise the transfer process.

The incident has drawn significant attention, highlighting the ongoing saga surrounding the crossdresser’s legal troubles.

On Monday, SaharaReporters reported that Bobrisky was arrested while attempting to escape to the Benin Republic.
