    Paulo Okoye, on his Instagram page, noted how if Bobrisky is guilty of naira abuse, it means he and over 2 million Nigerians are also guilty and would need to report themselves at a police station.

    He appealed to the Economic and Financial Crime Commission to forgive Nigerians as he promised that naira abuse wouldn’t repeat itself.

    “If Bobrisky is guilty of Naira abuse, you know over 2M Nigerians will just go to the Police Station and report yourselves including me.

    “Please EFCC forgive us. Is not going to happen again,” he wrote.
