Controversial Nigerian crossdresser, Idris Okunneye, better known as Bobrisky has come under intense criticism as Benin Youths took to the streets in protest against the socialite for allegedly insulting the Oba of Benin, Oba Ewuare II.
The street demonstration is coming after the news of the self-acclaimed “Mummy of Lagos” coming to the streets of Benin, Edo State again for an event.
Taking to the streets in protest, the youths in the state expressed their nonacceptance of his coming to Benin.
It would be recalled that last year, the controversial socialite sparked a wave of reaction on social media after he jokingly asked in a video that the Oba of Benin should come and marry him.
His statement however didn’t sit well with the youths of Benin as they considered it an insult to the Benin culture and they have considered it a personal issue.
They were seen holding placards that conveyed their displeasure in such words as “He is a bad influence; We don’t want him in our state”.
The protest reportedly escalated, and Bobrisky had to hastily leave Benin City for his safety.
