Nigerians have expressed mixed reactions to the new invitation extended to Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, following his outburst in a video made by Martins Vincent Otse, also known as the Very Dark Man (VDM).

In the video, the VDM played Bobrisky’s voice call, alleging that he paid some EFCC officials N15 million to drop the laundering charges leveled against him by the anti-graft agency during his trial earlier this year.

Recall that Bobrisky was recently convicted of naira abuse and was sentenced to six months imprisonment by a Federal High Court in Lagos on Friday, April 12, 2024.

Nigerians react to new EFCC, Bobrisky, VDM’s saga

Some Nigerians have taken to the comment section of the EFCC’s statement and expressed their views about the development. Below are some of their comments:

Oyindamola reacted:

“EFCC investigating EFCC… VDM, you do this one.”

Santorini accuses the EFCC. He wrote:

“Anything that makes EFCC release a long epistle like this, they definitely have skeleton in their cupboard.”

Prince Charles reacted:

“The truth is Nigerians don’t trust this agency. The onus is on you to do the needful and fish out the allegedly dirty officials. Well done, VDM.”

A Nigerian with the handle @altruist001 wrote:

“With each passing case, the gap between your actions and public expectations widens. From high-profile corruption cases to allegations against your own, the EFCC’s track record seems to oscillate between inaction and overzealousness without a clear commitment to justice.

“Your assurances of thorough investigations often end in deafening silence. There’s a pattern here: promise action, maybe a few arrests for show, then… silence. The public deserves more than just the promise of investigation; they deserve transparent, conclusive outcomes .”

Another Nigerian with the handle @Mautiin01 commented:

“They had better do. This is a slap on your organization if this is true, and all culprits must be brought to book. I hope this sounds like a lesson for others.”
