He emphasizes that wealth and influence often allow individuals to bypass legal consequences, exposing deep institutional decay. Nigerians share mixed reactions, highlighting systemic corruption and the need for reform.

Investigative journalist Fisayo Soyombo reacted to the recent exposé on Bobrisky by VeryDarkMan, expressing his astonishment at the number of people questioning the credibility of the claims. In a post on X, Soyombo challenged the public's understanding of Nigeria's justice system, stating, “Many of you are strangers in your own country.” He emphasized that individuals with cases against the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) often find ways to evade consequences, sometimes living luxuriously while purportedly serving sentences.

Soyombo questioned why so many people seemed surprised by the revelations, highlighting how those with wealth and influence can manipulate the justice system. He pointed out that inmates sometimes enjoy a lifestyle in luxurious accommodations, engaging in activities like partying and smoking, all while their official prison records can be conveniently erased. He attributed the ignorance to a broader issue of institutional decay and corruption, urging Nigerians to recognize the realities of their legal system.

Reactions from Nigerians varied, with some expressing frustration at the state of justice in the country. Many echoed Soyombo's sentiments about corruption, with comments highlighting the systemic problems plaguing Nigeria’s institutions. Some suggested that it was too late for reform, while others called for accountability from the government
