Spokesman of the Nigeria Police Force ,NPF, ACP OLumuyiwa Adejobi has said that there is no provision in the law suggesting that crossdressers in Nigeria should be arrested. 

Amid some debates all over social media involving crossdressing and sexuality, the police imagemaker said the crime for which people get arrested has more to do with natural offences or crimes against nature.

Speaking, Adejobi opined that certain cases are hard to prove without evidence and as such, many who cross-dress are often accused of other crimes and until prove is found, these individuals cannot be kept behind bars.

He further emphasized that even to prove and prosecute anyone for natural offences, the police must have adequate proof that can hold its own in court.
