The controversial figure made the announcement during a TikTok live session, expressing his frustration with the lack of acceptance he faced in Nigeria, especially from government officials.

Bobrisky, whose social media presence has sparked both support and criticism, claimed that some Nigerian senators and ministers had allegedly bullied him, rather than focusing on more pressing national issues.

“Nothing will bring me back to Nigeria. If I need to come, it will only be for a visit. Why would I leave a place where I’m appreciated and respected to return to a country where I’m bullied?” Bobrisky stated during the live session.

The relocation marks a significant change for Bobrisky, as he shares that in his new country, his gender identity is legally recognised, something he believes would never happen in Nigeria.

This move highlights the challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ community in Nigeria, where issues of gender identity and sexual orientation are often met with resistance and discrimination.

Bobrisky’s decision to leave Nigeria and live in a place where he is accepted and respected underscores the ongoing conversations about gender identity rights and societal attitudes towards non-conformity in the country.

While he did not specify the country he has relocated to, Bobrisky’s move has sparked discussions about the treatment of gender-diverse individuals and the importance of fostering inclusive environments where people can live authentically.recognition and respect for gender identity.
