Nigerian rapper Falz has vehemently denied allegations that he and his father helped crossdresser Bobrisky drop money laundering charges with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

The allegations surfaced in a viral audio released by social media personality VeryDarkMan, who claimed that Bobrisky paid an undisclosed amount to EFCC officials to avoid prosecution. Bobrisky also admitted to paying a ₦15 million bribe but claimed he served his full prison sentence for abusing the naira.

VeryDarkMan further alleged that a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) and his son intervened to secure Bobrisky’s release, naming Falz and his father, Femi Falana, as the individuals involved. However, Falz has categorically denied these claims.

In response to the allegations, the EFCC announced an investigation into the matter. Falz quickly became a trending topic on social media, with many Nigerians expressing shock and disbelief at the accusations.

Several social media users defended Falz, stating that he and his father merely provided legal representation to Bobrisky. They argued that there was no evidence of wrongdoing on Falz’s part and that he should not be held responsible for Bobrisky’s actions.

Falz has now issued a 24-hour ultimatum to VeryDarkMan, demanding a retraction of the defamatory statements and a public apology. If these demands are not met, Falz has threatened legal action.

The controversy surrounding Bobrisky and the EFCC continues to unfold, with the rapper’s denial of involvement adding another layer to the complex case.
