Bobrisky had taken took to social media to reveal he decided to change his gender from a male to a female to earn a living.

He wrote in an Instagram post:

“Dis message is for you all to read before you judge me. I was formally a man for almost 25yrs, nothing to show for it. I kept struggling even with my certificate as a graduate of accounting in university of Lagos, nothing to still show for it.

”I saw how all my females friends were cashing out back then. I went home and think about my life. If I join robbery they will end up killing me, secondly I don’t even have that heart ❤️ to think to that dimension or to even scam people of their sweat ?. while I was growing I have a little bit of female features in me, so I decide to try what cross dressing look like. Under one yr of cross dressing I started making money ?.

”I was still surprise ?. So I gave my body more time, rubbing expensive creams, smelling good, using more of females body pills ? and looking out for myself. Boom ? more money keep coming… men admiring me, women giving me endorsements from right and left. Short story I fit in as a female to a man. God bless all d women around d world ???? many of you love me and accepted me, save me and I will always respect WOMEN.”

Reacting to Bobrisky’s reasons of being a crossdresser, Bisi Alimi called him out for doing that for profit and that is not what trans is about.

According to him, Bobrisky is a fraud and it’s about high time they call him what he is because he’s a man in women’s cloth just for money and fame.

Adding that he could have done his own thing and get the fame and fame he wanted without being a local mad idiot.

”I am never one to misgender anyone but Bobrisky is (based on this comment) a man in a woman’s clothing for profit and that’s not what being Trans is.
