Nigerian crossdresser Bobrisky sparked reactions after making a major appearance at the Ikeja Mall cinema for a meet and greet event promoting the movie ‘Ajakaju’. This came after Bobrisky faced criticism from industry professionals for winning the ‘Best Dressed Female’ award at the film’s premiere on March 24th at Circle Mall in Lekki, Lagos State. Nigerian street musician Portable even released a diss track attacking Bobrisky over the controversy.
A recent viral video showed Bobrisky at Ikeja City Mall in Lagos for a meet-and-greet session with moviegoers there to watch ‘Ajakaju’. In the footage, a large crowd of fans can be seen swarming and mobbing Bobrisky as the crossdresser made their way to the main auditorium of the cinema. Fans rushed to get videos and pictures of Bobrisky, despite the earlier backlash over the crossdresser’s award win. The video highlighting Bobrisky’s popularity with fans at the mall screening circulated widely online.
