Human rights lawyer Femi Falana has rejected allegations of involvement with controversial crossdresser Bobrisky.
Bobrisky claimed to have bribed officials with N15 million to drop money laundering charges. However, Falana said he has never met or spoken to Bobrisky.
Falana's son, Folarin (Falz), was once asked for help by Bobrisky but refused due to the unauthorized request.
He said, “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).
“Yes, my son said this guy was appealing to people for assistance and called my son I think on May 4 this year – please can you give me N3 million to be placed in a special part of the prison, we call it the VIP section.
“My son asked him, are you calling me under the authorization of the superintendent of prisons? He said no – please don’t call me again, I am unable to assist you to bribe the prison authorities and be very careful since you are already in prison for an offence.
“Please if you are you are going to call me next time, you either do through the superintendent or you write a letter endorsed by the prison authorities and that was the last. Somebody now start releasing tapes somewhere and went out to lampoon and rather defame me by saying the guy has spoken to me.
