Doctor jailed after issuing fake report for activist Adetoun
Adetoun Onajobi, a social welfare activist, is reportedly in hiding after being accused of spreading false information about emergency services in Ogun State. The Ogun State Government claims a doctor issued a fake medical report to help her avoid arrest. The doctor has now been remanded in prison after admitting to fabricating the report. Authorities say Adetoun Onajobi faces multiple charges and remains at large.
What happened
- The Ogun State Government alleges that Adetoun Onajobi released videos accusing Governor Dapo Abiodun of neglecting public welfare and misrepresenting emergency services.
- Following these claims, the police invited Adetoun Onajobi to report on January 2, 2026, and again on January 5, but she did not appear and went into hiding.
- While evading arrest, she released another video claiming illness, and her lawyer submitted a medical report later found to be fake.
- The doctor who issued the report admitted it was fabricated, leading to his arrest, charges, and remand for fraudulent documentation and obstruction of justice.
- The government also referenced previous incidents involving Adetoun Onajobi, including alleged bullying and unlawful filming.
