Bobrisky was released on August 5, 2024, after serving six months for abusing the naira, he claimed the prison experience was beneficial amid his busy schedule. Bobrisky also emphasised that he does not consider himself an ex-convict, arguing that he cannot be convicted for spraying money at events.

He said, “It’s funny to me. Everything happened like a movie. Spraying of money? It’s my money. I’m not owing anybody money. I did not steal money. I did not kidnap, I did not rape. I did not kill anybody. I spent my own hard-earned money, and I was sentenced to where we have a lot of criminals.

“But like I always say, I’m a very strong person. If I have chosen this lifestyle to be who I wanna be, then I should be ready for the worst.

“And the worst that has happened is sending me to prison because, obviously, I did not do anything, I did not kill anybody. I’m not an ex-convict because I can’t be convicted for spraying money. So I won’t accept it.”
