Lagos doctor remanded over fake medical report for activist

Policeman

The Ogun State Government on Monday disclosed that a Lagos-based medical doctor had been remanded in prison for allegedly issuing a fake medical report to help an activist, Adetoun Onajobi, popularly known as @justadetoun, evade police arrest.

The disclosure was contained in a statement issued by the state Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Oluwasina Ogungbade, SAN.

According to the statement, “Adetoun, an internet personality, has for years been accused of bullying, harassment, and using offensive language against individuals online.”

The matter escalated after the former boxing champion, Anthony Joshua, was involved in an accident in Ogun State.

In reaction, Adetoun allegedly posted videos claiming that there was no ambulance service anywhere in the state and further accused the state governor, Dapo Abiodun, of partying in Ghana and impregnating women instead of attending to the boxer’s welfare.

Ogungbade described the claims as false, malicious, and misleading, noting that Ogun State operates multiple state-owned and state-supported ambulance services.

Following this, the state reported Adetoun to the police for alleged violations of the Cybercrimes Act, 2015.

The statement added, “The police reportedly invited the social critic for questioning on January 5, 2026, after issuing a notice on January 2.

“However, she reportedly failed to appear and allegedly went into hiding, despite boasting earlier that she had evidence to substantiate her claims.

“Even while in hiding, Onajobi reportedly released another video claiming she was ill and unable to honour the police invitation.

“Subsequently, her lawyer submitted a letter to the police attaching a medical report from a Lagos-based doctor, stating that she was medically indisposed.
