Nigerian medical doctor, Dr. Olufunmilayo, known for his outspokenness on the X app, has voiced his opinion on how the Nigerian Correctional Services treated Bobrisky.
Bobrisky was sentenced to 6 months without a fine for Naira abuse. A thorough search by the correctional services found “no evidence of gender or genital organ realignment” in Bobrisky, with his male biological characteristics remaining unchanged. Despite Bobrisky’s identification as male in court, the correctional services conducted the search and made the results public.
Dr. Olufunmilayo criticized the actions as deliberate ridicule and dehumanization, condemning the breach of confidentiality rights. He emphasized Bobrisky’s entitlement to dignity and fair treatment, regardless of lifestyle, and suggested that the currency-related offenses served as a diversion for further dehumanization.
“It is clear as day that Bobrisky is being scapegoated for deliberate ridicule and dehumanization. With the Nigerian Prison Service releasing an official statement giving details of his/her genital organs to the public, it is now quite clear the plan of the authorities is to dehumanize, oppress, ridicule and make an entire mockery of his human dignity.
“To be clear: It is wrong, it is barbaric and it is an entire squashing of his/her confidentiality rights for such sensitive personal details of his/her public genital area to be leaked to the public.On a daily or weekly basis, People get sentenced to jail and NEVER EVER has there been disclosure of their genital organs to the public.
“The bottom line is that Bobrisky is a human being deserving of dignity, worth and right treatment. No matter what you feel about his/her lifestyle, if you are a sane person, you should see quite simply how evil this maltreatment being meted out to this person is.
“It is quite clear at this point that all that Naira mutilation talk was a dirty decoy for a more demonic and sinister plan to completely strip this person of human dignity and achieve a total dehumanisation of their person. Nigeria is a scary place,” he opined.
