Controversial Nigerian crossdresser Bobrisky has decided to go against the orders of his religious leader and organize a lavish gala to honor his late father’s death.
This decision comes despite a viral video in which an Alfa, a religious leader, warned Bobrisky against holding such a celebration during his father’s funeral.
The untimely demise of Kunle Okuneye, Bobrisky’s father, was announced by Within Nigeria, a few weeks ago, shaking the star’s fans and followers.
Debola Okuneye, Bobrisky’s brother, and a close friend and coworker of the deceased, known as “Lastborn,” provided further details about the circumstances leading to the death and the subsequent funeral.
The burial, adhering to Islamic customs, took place in Ijebu-Igbo, Ogun State, the late father’s hometown, at 4 p.m. on August 14.
However, a video of a local religious leader warning Bobrisky against hosting a memorial celebration for his father during the funeral ritual quickly gained traction online.
Despite the Alfa’s cautionary words, it appears that Bobrisky remains determined to honor his father’s memory in his own way.
He recently took to his Instagram page to share a videeo of himself selecting a head tie (gele) for the upcoming event.
In his words;
“I went to Lagos Island to pick headtie (gele) for my dad’s 41-day and final burial on September 30th. All my friends hope you are all ready to paint Ijebu Igbo blue and black”
