Crossdresser Bobrisky has won the ‘best dressed female’ category at the premiere of Ajakaju: Beast of Two Worlds produced by actress Eniola Ajao.
The star-studded event themed ‘Royal Beast’ was held in Lagos on Sunday with the likes of Toyin Abraham, Iyabo Ojo, Dayo Amusa, Odunlade Adeokola, Kunle Afolayan, and Femi Adebayo in attendance.
Surprisingly, Bobrisky was named the best-dressed female at the event, beating other female celebrities who could not believe that the crossdresser out-dressed them.
One of them was Toyin Abraham who in a now-viral video could be seen questioning why Bobriksy won the category.
In the video, the mother of one kept repeating the words ‘best female?’ in disbelief while Bobrisky laughed.
The crossdresser rocked a black silver stoned dress and nails painted black to match. The 32-year-old was declared best dressed by Femi Adebayo and comedian Gbenga Adeyinka and was presented with a cheque of one million naira.
Although Bob has publicly called himself a transwoman, it would appear that the win did not sit well with Nigerians as many have stormed social media to express their views over the crossdresser being nominated in a female category.
“Una dey take this thing as joke….but real foolishness to yall all in the name of entertainment…..nah man dey win woman category so. VDM was right but just he started putting mouth on issues he wasn’t supposed to,” Oduwa wrote.
“What is the criteria? Shei the winner no suppose be WOMAN? someone should explain better please!” LadyVeiy added.
“Who gave Bobrisky best dressed?😂 The theme is Royal beast and there’s nothing beast in her dressing at all. There were other looks that were beast there. I really wonder what they saw in her. This could be a look to another event now. Even see Eniola Ajao’s look, that was what was expected. Even the video she rolled out for what she was expecting at her event. This bob winning is a no no for me. But then, she should enjoy her 1 million,” Abibat wrote/
Meanwhile, Big Brother Naija reality star snatched the title of best-dressed male.
