Nigerian social media sensation and crossdresser Bobrisky has announced a temporary exit from Nigeria, sharing that the move is driven by a need to protect his mental health amidst what he describes as ongoing pressures from Nigerian security agencies. In a candid Instagram post, Bobrisky detailed his recent struggles with attempting to leave the country, revealing that he booked three business-class tickets to secure his departure but only successfully travelled on one of them.
Each ticket reportedly cost him 9.8 million Naira, with the influencer appealing to KLM for a refund for the two unused seats. Despite the financial inconvenience, he clarified that the airline was not to blame. “Yes, I’m here to confirm I’m out of Nigeria temporarily… I need to attend to my sanity and my health.
A few Nigerian security agencies tried everything to frustrate me, but naa, I got God. Imagine buying business class tickets three times, only one was successful,” he shared. Bobrisky also took a moment to respond to critics, suggesting that they consider the cost of his travel choices before passing judgment. He ended his post confidently, saying, “Well, I’m not in Nigeria, so your comments mean nothing.”
His departure has added to the ongoing conversation about the challenges faced by high-profile figures in Nigeria, particularly those with nontraditional public personas.
Fans and followers have reacted with mixed responses, expressing both support and curiosity about the pressures that led to his decision to seek temporary refuge abroad.
