Alleged defamation: Hold VDM responsible, Bobrisky replies Falana
Controversial crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, also known as Bobrisky, has insisted that he didn’t defame human rights lawyer Femi Falana and his son, singer Falz.
Bobrisky was reacting to the 12-hour ultimatum Falana issued him to retract his defamatory claim against them in an audio leaked by popular social media critic, VeryDarkMan.
The crossdresser, however, rejected the demand for retraction and public apology by the lawyers, denying the allegation against him.
In a series of Insta stories, he said, “In reply to the two letters in circulation from the law firm of the Falanas’, I like to state for the record and pending the official reply from my counsel, state for the avoidance of doubt that I, Okuneye Idris Olanrewaju, aka Bobrisky, did not publish any defamatory statements concerning the learned SAN, Falana and his son Falz.
“And that it is in the public domain pursuant to my solicitor’s letter dated 27th of September 2024 that I have denied any knowledge of what VeryDarkMan published.
“I stand by my express denial and advise whoever has been defamed to hold the publisher of the defamatory content. My fundamental rights to privacy of communications should be respected and protected.” [sic].
