Nigerian crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, better known as Bobrisky, was on Thursday night forcefully dragged off the flight while travelling to London after his release from detention.
Naijaonpoint reports that this comes after Isaac Fayose, the younger brother to former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, shared photos of himself and Bobrisky at the airport.
However, drama ensued as the Economic Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) stormed the Lagos airport to arrest Bobrisky.
The controversial crossdresser, in a post via his Instagram page, cried out to Nigerians for help, stating he was severely injured.
A video of the incident that emerged online shows how Bobrisky was forcefully dragged off the flight by airport security officers.

In a related news, a senior management officer of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) has clarified claims of Nigerian crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, better known as Bobrisky, on serving his jail term in a private apartment.
Naijaonpoint recalls that controversial activist, VeryDarkMan, shared a video in which Bobrisky purportedly claimed that he bribed some Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) officials to drop the money laundering charge against him.
In the footage, a voice allegedly belonging to Bobrisky also claimed that a “godfather” alongside Haliru Nababa, the controller general of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS), ensured she served the six-month sentence in a private apartment and not in prison.
However, in an interview with Punch, a high-ranking officer said that what people called VIP treatment for certain prisoners was a special facility that had existed for years.
According to the officer, custodial centres have different facilities and prisoners’ conditions (health, age, sex) determine which facility they stay in to serve their jail term.
