Bobrisky sheds light on his journey to becoming a transgender.

Popular Nigerian controversial transgender, Idris Okuneye, well known as Bobrisky, has opened up on how he became a crossdresser

In a recent interview with Charly Boy, Bobrisky, makes some major revelations on his journey to becoming a transgender.

Bobrisky revealed that his foray into crossdressing initially began as a clever marketing strategy while he was selling unisex clothes during his time as an undergraduate at the University of Lagos.

According to him, he didn’t know that this seemingly innocent decision would eventually lead him down the path of transitioning into a whole new identity.

Despite facing initial resistance from his parents, Bobrisky stated that he eventually found the courage to be true to himself and fully embrace his identity as a transgender, crediting his parents for allowing him to express himself freely and live authentically.

In his words:

“About nine years ago, I was at the University of Lagos studying Accounting. I also had a side hustle, I was selling unisex clothes. Most times I try the female wears on myself and I love the outfits.

From there, I moved to female hairstyles to makeup and more women were patronizing my business. So I decided to keep crossdressing since it was lucrative.

“I wasn’t thinking I was going to do it for a very long time. Initially, it was just a marketing strategy but people were complimenting me that I look better as a woman than a man. That’s how I ended up being Bobrisky.”
