Lagos lawyer, Femi Falana, has denied having any connection with alleged bribery over prison arrangements or money laundering charges against Idris Okuneye (aka Bobrisky).

Falana’s response comes after allegations in a viral video by blogger Martins Otse (aka VeryDarkMan) suggesting that some unnamed officers of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) allegedly collected N15 million from Bobrisky to drop money laundering charge againt him.

The video also suggested that Falana sought a presidential pardon for Bobrisky in exchange for N10 million.

But speaking last night on Channels Television’s “Politics Today”, monitored by The Nation, Falana dismissed the accusations, saying: “Bobrisky never spoke to me. I have never met him. I do not know him from Adam. He was alleged to have spoken to my son, Folarin (Falz).”

The Lagos lawyer said Bobrisky approached Folarin on May 4, requesting for N3 million to be placed in a special part of the prison.

“My son asked him: ‘Are you calling me under the authorisation of the superintendent of prisons?’ He said: ‘No,’ and my son said: ‘Please, don’t call me again’,” the lawyer said.

Falana, who expressed frustration at what he called the spread of falsehoods over the video on social media platforms, described the allegations as “infantile radicalism.” (The Nation)
