Nigerian gay rights activist, Bisi Alimi, has lambasted Bobrisky after he said he became a woman because of the monetary gains.

Bobrisky had said during an interview with Chude Jidonwo that he wasn't making any money when he was a man. He added that he became a woman for the financial gains.

"Being a woman has paved lots of ways for me. Women don't know how powerful they are. They don't know how to use their resources as women, " the crossdresser said.

Reacting, Bisi called Bobrisky a local champion. He added that Bobrisky's statement is one you will never hear from women and trans women.

Bisi went on to call Bobrisky a "woman for pay when it suits you" and asked what happens when being a woman no longer pays.
