Controversial Idris Okuneye, a transgender socialite from Nigeria who goes by the name Bobrisky, has reacted to the widespread arrest of LGBT suspects in Delta State.
67 individuals were detained by the Delta State Police Command on Tuesday for allegedly performing a same-sex wedding ceremony.
Bobrisky claimed on his Instagram page that he had received numerous requests for his opinion after the arrest of the Delta crossdressers.
Speaking on the incident, he highlighted that they deserved to be arrested because Nigerian law forbids men from getting married to one another.
“Hey guys, I want to quickly address those set of guys who were arrested in Delta. You see this class is not actually meant for everyone. But I strongly believe you can learn from those Alist.
“Firstly, there’s a law passed against you guys that you can’t marry yourself in this country. Why the hell did you all call yourself together to organize a wedding? You all deserve how you were treated,” he said.
“If you feel you are in love with your partner and you want to be together why not relocate to where you are welcome?”
