At a recent movie premiere in Lagos, controversial social media sensation Bobrisky was awarded the title of 'Best Dressed Female', sparking a wave of reactions across various platforms. The decision to honor Bobrisky, who identifies as transgender, with the prestigious award and a cash prize of N1 million drew sharp criticism from fellow public figure Portable.
In a video shared on Instagram, Portable condemned the judges' decision, arguing that Bobrisky's gender identity disqualifies him from being considered alongside women. He asserted that despite any cosmetic surgeries Bobrisky may have undergone, he remains biologically male and should not have been eligible for the award. Furthermore, Portable issued a direct threat to Bobrisky, warning of physical confrontation for what he perceived as a disrespect to men.
In response, Bobrisky took to his Instagram story to fire back at Portable, dismissing his comments and threatening retaliation if the criticism persisted. The exchange between the two personalities has ignited a fierce debate online, highlighting broader issues surrounding gender identity, recognition, and acceptance in Nigerian society.
