VeryDarkMan releases another alleged Bobrisky’s audio

Social media influencer and activist, Martins Otse, aka VeryDarkMan, has released another purported call recording of controversial crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, aka Bobrisky.

In September, Daily Trust had reported how VeryDarkMan shared an alleged audio of Bobrisky, claiming he bribed some Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) officials with N15 million to drop the money laundering charge against him.

Bobrisky, however, dismissed the audio, stressing that the claim that he was never in prison was false and should be ignored.

In the new audio leak released on Monday, VeryDarkMan revealed that Bobrisky had a conversation with another individual on May 16.

Bobrisky allegedly admitted to not being in prison but rather in a well-furnished apartment near the prison where he had access to his mobile phone.

He reiterated that the EFCC dropped the charges against him after discovering the substantial amount of money in his account.

He said: “I don’t have enough time because I don’t talk to people, but I want to talk to you about this because I haven’t been speaking to anyone or replying to messages sent to me. I don’t want anybody to know I have my phone, but you know what happened to me.

“So, before the EFCC, of course, they were investigating me about the cars, money, and everything, all this while. I knew they would come for me one day because of all the noise, but it’s okay.

“When they were investigating me, they blocked my account, they froze my account. Obviously, they didn’t want me to carry out any transactions during their ongoing investigation. Initially, they added money laundering charges because of the funds they found in my account and the money passed through it. So, they had some money, but we were able to plead with them and give them some funds to drop the money laundering charges against me.”

Speaking further, Bobrisky alleged that the money laundering charges were merely an attempt by the EFCC to detain him unjustly.

In the leaked audio, he expressed his shock at being taken to court simply for spending his hard-earned money.

“I can’t be facing money laundering charges—God forbid. I know they were just looking for something to hold against me because I was not the only one spraying money, but they chose to target me for that, which is strange. But I’m strong and ready for whatever comes my way. One thing that made me happy was that after their investigation, they realised I was not involved in money laundering, fraud, or any illegal dealings with politicians.

“They did a thorough check and couldn’t find any evidence against me. They went to my house, seized my car and everything. During their investigation, they saw the people I did business with. I earned all the money I have legitimately through my influencing work. I can easily make around £10,000 from one job.

“They don’t know how much I charge, but I clarified that I can charge as much as $100,000 for influencing. So, if you think you can’t do it, remember not all fingers are equal. Some people do it, and God blesses them, too.”

Libya’s highest authority ordered me to divert Super Eagles flight, says pilot

Libya’s highest authority ordered me to divert Super Eagles flight, says pilot

Tunisian pilot who recently flew the Super Eagles of Nigeria to Libya

The Tunisian pilot who flew the Super Eagles of Nigeria to Libya has spoken out about the controversy surrounding the flight diversion.

In a now-viral video, the pilot said the original plan was to land in Benina, a town in the Benghazi area of Libya, with prior approval from the Libyan Civil Aviation Authority.

He said, however, upon beginning their descent, he was instructed to divert to Al-Abraq, which was not listed as an alternate airport.

The Tunisian man said he was told the order for flight diversion came from “Libya’s highest authorities”.

READ ALSO:

He said he repeatedly questioned the flight diversion order due to the limitation of aviation fuel but was “ignored by Libyan aviation authorities”.

“The flight plan was to land in Benghazi, Benina, and we had approval from the Libyan Civil Aviation Authority,” the pilot said.

“However, as we began our descent, we were instructed to divert to Al-Abraq, which wasn’t even listed as our alternate airport.

“This decision came from the highest authorities, not me. In aviation, we calculate fuel based on our destination. Diverting unexpectedly can compromise safety.

“Everything is documented. I asked to land in Benghazi as per my flight plan, but they denied it, instructing me to divert immediately.

“I repeatedly questioned the directive and warned them about fuel limitations, but they insisted that we land in Al-Abraq, citing orders from the highest authority.”

BACKGROUND

The Super Eagles’ flight landed at the Al Abaq airport for the second leg of their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifying match against Libya.

The match was scheduled for Tuesday at the Martyrs of February Stadium in Benina, Benghazi.

However, the Super Eagles players and coaches were held at the Al Abaq airport for over 20 hours without food and drinks.

On Monday morning, the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) announced the Super Eagles’ withdrawal from the qualifying match and asked them to return home. The Nigerian team then arrived in Kano from Libya.

Reacting to the situation, the Libyan Football Federation (LFF) said the flight diversion experienced by the Nigerian national team was not “intentional”.

The LFF rejected claims of “foul play or sabotage” and argued that their team faced a similar situation in Nigeria.

Reacting, the Confederation of African Football (CAF) said it is investigating the “disturbing” incident.
