BOBRISKY’S COURT BID AGAINST EFCC HITS A BRICK WALL
In a dramatic turn of events, the Federal High Court in Lagos State has delivered a crushing blow to Bobrisky’s fundamental rights enforcement suit against the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). The court’s verdict has left Bobrisky’s quest for justice in tatters.
Justice Alexander Owoeye’s judgment has sent a clear message: Bobrisky’s allegations of rights violations against the EFCC are baseless and lacking in merit. The court’s decision to dismiss Bobrisky’s claims has dealt a significant blow to the crossdresser’s bid for compensation.
In a sweeping rejection of Bobrisky’s suit, the court has thrown out all the reliefs sought by the crossdresser. This includes the perpetual injunction against the EFCC and the N200 million damages claim. The court’s ruling has effectively exonerated the EFCC of any wrongdoing.
BOBRISKY’S ARREST AND CONVICTION: A BACKGROUNDER
It’s worth recalling that Bobrisky’s run-in with the law began with his arrest by the EFCC on April 4, 2024, for Naira abuse. This eventually led to his six months conviction by Justice Abimbola Awogboro of the Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos on April 12, 2024.
A LESSON IN THE IMPORTANCE OF SUBSTANTIATING CLAIMS
The court’s ruling serves as a stark reminder of the importance of substantiating claims with credible evidence. Bobrisky’s failure to provide sufficient proof to support his allegations has resulted in a decisive victory for the EFCC.
