Nigerian crossdresser, Bobrisky has reacted to the arrest of over 100 suspected gays and crossdressers by police during a same-sex wedding in Delta state.
KanyiDaily had reported how police arrested the suspects on August 28th during a gay wedding at Teebulus Hotel along Refinery Road Ekpan in Delta.
Spokesman of the police command, Bright Edafe said the wedding ceremony was between Daniel Pius ‘m’ (groom) and Maxwell Ohwonowho ‘m’ (bride).
Reacting to the incident via his Instagram page, Bobrisky began by acknowledging that being a crossdresser is a personal choice that may not be suitable for everyone.
The crossdresser, who was responding to those who want his opinion on the matter, emphasized that those who were arrested should face the consequences of their actions.
He highlighted the legal context surrounding the arrests, noting that there is a law in Nigeria prohibiting same-sex marriages, and he questioned the decision of the group of crossdressers to organize a wedding ceremony despite knowing the legal ramifications.
The crossdresser labeled this action as the “most foolish news” he had come across that week and emphasized that, in his view, the consequences they faced were deserved.
Bobrisky further advised aspiring crossdressers to seek inspiration from established figures in the crossdressing community, referring to them as “A-listers.”
He wrote, “Hey guys!! I want to quickly addressed those set of guys who were arrested in delta. You see dis class is not actually meant for everyone. But i strongly believe you can learn from those Alist.
