Nigerian Transgender and socialite, Idris Okuneye, also known as Bobrisky on Saturday, fled the venue of his birthday party and subsequently gone into hiding when men of Nigerian Police stormed his 28th venue, in Lekki, Lagos.

It was gathered that the invasion followed the recent criticism of Bobrisky’s acts by the Director General, Nigerian Culture and Tourism, Otunba Rusewe who described him a “national disgrace to the country”, adding that he will soon be dealt with by the government if caught on the street.

Bobrisky also went ahead to respond the DG, telling him that “I roll with your superiors in government”.

However, he was nowhere to be found when the officers literally stormed the venue, arrested some folks and chased away bouncers who were supposed to be the security at Lekki venue.
