VeryDarkMan has finally opened up on how he got hold of the controversial audio recording allegedly attributed to Bobrisky.
The activist testified on Monday before the house of representatives joint committee on financial crimes and reformatory institutions over bribery allegations against officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), and Haliru Nababa, controller-general of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS).
VeryDarkMan had initially refused to address the committee in the absence of Bobrisky until Deji Adeyanju, his lawyer, prevailed on the matter.
Addressing the committee, the activist revealed that he received the viral audio record from someone to whom Bobrisky owed money.
VeryDarkMan alleged that the lender provided Bobrisky with the money on June 19, 2024, while she was in EFCC detention.
“How I got hold of that recording is a result of Bobrisky blackmailing somebody he owes money. According to the story and evidence of proof of chat that was sent to me,” he said.
“The person borrowed Bobrisky N4 million when he was in EFCC detention or rather in a private apartment. The person gave him the money on the 19th of June, 2024.
“It was transferred to a Kuda account of Abiodun Okuneye, apparently his brother’s account. So, when it was time to get his money back, he told Bobrisky he needed to sort his bills in Lagos but Bobrisky refused to respond.”
The Abuja-based fitness expert also claimed that the crossdresser blackmailed the person she owed money to when it was time to repay.
“The chat where he was disturbing the guy he wants to refund immediately after he saw my video and the chat where he blackmailed the guy, asking for the money,” he continued.
“I would like to read a part where he said ‘dear Bobrisky this is a reminder for the return of the loan amount of N4 million as agreed, the due date for the return is September 1’. Mind you, it was Bobrisky who gave the date.
“Then he said ‘kindly use the attached details to make the refund’ but because he did not get it, he came to me.
“So this part, the guy went on saying ‘I helped when you needed help but when it’s time to pay me back, you are blackmailing me’. Then Bobrisky went on to say ‘when you kissed, smooched me, did you give me any money? I did not ask you for money because I’m okay. If not EFCC, do you think I’m going to ask you for money? Go ahead and call me out, I will respond to you on IG. You know I’m shameless and I don’t care. You will get your money, I have your account. I don’t want to look ungrateful but threatening me with 24 hours ultimatum is the height of it.”
“So these are the evidence I will be presenting. Additionally, after this, there is a second and a third one.”
Although he did not mention names, the social media celebrity also submitted part of the recording to the committee.
VeryDarkMan had previously shared an audio in which Bobrisky purportedly claimed that she bribed some EFCC officials with N15 million to drop the money laundering charge against her.
The crossdresser also claimed that after her sentencing for naira abuse in April, her “godfather” and the CG of NCoS arranged for her to serve the six-month jail term in a private apartment.
On Thursday, the lower legislative chamber resolved to probe the allegations against the anti-graft agency and the NCoS.
