In his words, “Few Nigerian security agencies try everything to frustrate me, but naaa, I gat God.” Bobrisky also called out KLM, the airline involved, asking them to refund two unused business class tickets, which he claimed cost a hefty N9.8 million each.

“Imagine buying a business class ticket three times; only one was successful. KLM, I hope you guys refund me the two I didn’t use. I know it’s not your fault, but it’s fine. Each business class cost me 9.800,000. I only successfully flew yesterday, 3/11/2024,” he explained.

He had response ready for potential critics, adding, “Before you come to my page to type nonsense, check your account balance if you can afford three business seats, not to talk of buying it three times. Well, I’m not in Nigeria, so your comment means nothing.”

Bobrisky’s exit comes shortly after his encounter with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). Only a few days prior, he was reportedly stopped and removed from a KLM flight bound for Amsterdam at Lagos’ Murtala Muhammed International Airport, as he tried to travel to London on Thursday night. He claimed he even sustained injuries during the incident.

Following the altercation, he was taken to EFCC’s headquarters in Abuja for questioning over allegations that he tried to bribe officials with N15 million to dismiss money laundering charges against him.

Bobrisky, however, reportedly denied the allegations in his statement and was released on bail.

Bobrisky’s move abroad might be his way of finding peace, but it seems his drama has travelled with him.
