Director-General of National Centre for Arts and Culture, Segun Runsewe, has expressed concern over the use of women’s toilet by transvestite, Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky.
Bobrisky recently caused a stir at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja when he used a toilet meant for women.
In an interview with The PUNCH in Abuja, Runsewe, who has been on a campaign against the cross-dresser, appealed to the Nigeria Medical Association to enlighten women on the dangers of sharing public toilets with Bobrisky.
He said that Bobrisky posed a health hazard worse than Ebola Virus Disease and that travellers and tourists should be wary of Bobrisky in the aspect of the use of public facilities.
“Women are prone to get various types of disease from the toilet than sexual intercourse. Now, Bobrisky will enter the same toilet with a woman and at the end, the woman will contract some kind of diseases,” he said.
“When she gets home and sleeps with her husband and the husband discovers he has been infected, the next thing is to seek for divorce without knowing the actual cause of how the wife was infected.”
Runsewe queried why Bobrisky would be allowed to use women’s toilet when his passport says he is a man.
“If Bobrisky is even using men’s toilet, we can understand. As I speak, we got a report of how a woman was very upset with the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria because on this day she saw Bobrisky using female toilet in Abuja airport,” he said.
