Bobrisky: I wasn’t’ suspended’ — Prison officer

Michael Anugwa, deputy controller of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS), says he was not suspended by the service.

Anugwa is the officer in charge of Medium Security Custodial Centre (MSCC), Kiri-kiri, Lagos state, where Idris Okuneye, a popular crossdresser better known as Bobrisky, served his time.

Anugwa spoke on Monday while addressing members of the house of representatives joint committee on financial crimes and reformatory institutions.

The committee is investigating the bribery allegation against the anti-graft agency and the NCoS.

‘It was a social media report. I wasn’t served a letter,” he said.

On Thursday, Ja’afaru Ahmed, the secretary to Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB), had said Anugwa and Sikiru Adekunle, deputy controller of corrections in the MSCC, were suspended.
