The police in Lagos has sealed the venues where popular cross-dresser Idris Oduneye aka Bobrisky was scheduled to hold his birthday.
Bobrisky, who turned 28 on Saturday, was to host celebration parties at the two locations which, but this was disrupted by police operatives, who stormed the venues and shut them down.
Speaking on the incident, Lagos Police Public Relations Officer, Bala Elkana said the police acted on intelligence to seal the venues.
He said, “Considering the pedigree of the celebrant, the event may likely cause a breach of public peace and it is expected that no immoral display should be allowed.

Before you call out the Nigerian Police, let us hear from them first on why they shut down the event center and besides why did Bobrisky itself run?

Why do we love to chase rats when a building is burning?
How exactly does Bobrisky's birthday party affect the security of the state that one hundred police officers were deployed to shut it down.
One hundred!
Waste of taxpayers money in my opinion.
Focus on real issues.

Nigeria is so finished. Deployed a whole 50 men to shut down Bobriskys party. For them to convict and arrest rapist it’s too much work but it’s Bobrisky they are chasing. Sigh. Nonsense everyday

I live in a "country" where the "police" let men who rape 2 year olds pay four figures and walk out the same day, but Bobrisky (a trans woman who legally isn't even breaking any laws) gets ambushed and arrested on her birthday. That's my reality. What's yours? pic.twitter.com/THS9YFUMs8
