The hearing, which was expected to shed light on allegations that Bobrisky bribed officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) with ₦15 million to drop money laundering charges against him, has garnered significant attention nationwide.

The sudden disruption created commotion among members of the House, with some expressing frustration over Bobrisky’s absence from such a crucial hearing. The lawyer’s attempt to offer further explanations was met with resistance, and he was promptly told to stick to the explanation already provided.

This latest development has left many questioning whether Bobrisky’s health condition is a legitimate reason for his absence or a delay tactic to avoid facing the inquiry.

The House of Representatives is expected to issue a follow-up decision regarding Bobrisky’s absence, with discussions about rescheduling or proceeding with the investigation still ongoing. As the case continues, both the activist VeryDarkMan and the EFCC remain key players in the unfolding drama, with more revelations anticipated in the coming days.
