The Lagos state police command has confirmed that its officers shut down the venue of cross-dresser, Bobrisky’s 28th birthday party expected to take place in Lekki, Lagos state on Saturday, August 31, 2019.
Bobrisky, who clocked 28 on Saturday, August 31, 2019, had slated the celebration for two locations in Lagos with one to hold on Saturday and another for Sunday.
Confirming the incident, Bala Elkana, the spokesperson for the police in Lagos, said that they acted on intelligence to seal the venues of the birthday party at Pearls Gardens in Lekki Phase 1 and Paradise Boat Club, Victoria Island where another one was scheduled to hold on Sunday, September 1, 2019.
“The operation is currently ongoing. It is true that we have sealed up the venue of the party based on some intelligence,” Mr. Elkana said.
“Considering the pedigree of the celebrant, the event may likely cause a breach of public peace and it is expected that no immoral display should be allowed.
“To augment security at each of the venues, ACPOL Area ‘A’ Lion Building/SUPOL Victoria Island mobilise 50 men to provide security at Club DNA, No 76 Adetokunbo Ademola Street, opposite Eko Hotel and Suite, Victoria Island and Paradise Boat Club, plot 8, Walter Carrington Crescent, Victoria Island.”
