The Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) said that crossdresser Bobrisky would be housed in a male cell after his sentencing. The crossdresser would be housed in the male custodian facility, according to a representative for the Lagos branch of the Correctional Service. The crossdresser's identification as a man during a court interview, according to the spokeswoman, was a factor in their choice to house him in a facility reserved for men. Bobrisky's gender preference has raised concerns about his safety, but correctional staff have reassured him that he will be sufficiently safeguarded from harm. He claims that the choice to house him in a male cell was made to keep him safe from sex predators.
We must follow the evidence presented in court because he acknowledged being a man there. Our men can protect him from sexual abuse by other male prisoners, so he shouldn't be afraid of them. The crossdresser was sentenced to six months in jail, with no chance of fine, hours ago for abusing Naira.
