According to Adejobi, the Nigerian legal system requires substantial evidence to warrant an arrest. Without tangible proof of wrongdoing, law enforcement agencies are unable to take action against individuals like Bobrisky, whose controversial activities have often sparked public debate.
Furthermore, Adejobi clarified that cross-dressing, while controversial, is not illegal in Nigeria. This aspect of the law complicates efforts to apprehend individuals solely based on their choice of attire or lifestyle.
The statement by the police spokesperson underscores the importance of adhering to legal protocols and respecting individual rights, even in cases that may be subject to public scrutiny. While opinions on issues like cross-dressing may vary, the rule of law remains paramount in upholding justice and fairness for all citizens.
