The Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ola Olukoyede, has ordered an immediate investigation into bribery allegations made by controversial cross-dresser Idris Okuneye, also known as Bobrisky.
Okuneye, a former convict, claimed in a video posted by blogger Martins Otse, known as VeryDarkMan, that certain unnamed EFCC officers demanded ₦15 million from him in exchange for dropping money laundering charges against him.
In a statement on Tuesday, EFCC spokesman Dele Oyewale announced that the EFCC chairman has formed a team of investigators to examine these allegations.
