This follows the recent revelation made by Very Dark BlackMan, VDM, implicating Bobrisky in an alleged bribery scandal involving some officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, and the Nigerian Correctional center.
In the leaked audio taping, Bobrisky allegedly said she was not inside the prison facility during his six months jail term, as a special apartment was rented for him outside the prison.
On the other hand, it was equally revealed in the audio taping that Bobrisky paid 15 million Naira for the EFCC to drop the money laundering charges against him, and focus only on the Naira abuse charges.
