A suspected fake doctor who has been performing surgeries and treating people with fake UNILAG certificate has been nabbed by the police.
The police in Abeokuta, Ogun State capital arrested the said fake medical doctor (name withheld) on Friday. He was picked up for allegedly being in possession of a fake certificate of the University of Lagos (UNILAG).
He was nabbed when he presented the university certificate as well as
National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) discharge certificate for
registration/revalidation exercise at the state Ministry of Health’s
headquarters in Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta.
According to New Telegraph, the arrest was consequent upon the suspect’s attempt to revalidate his facility (God Heals Medical Centre) at Sango-Ota area of the state, which had earlier been sealed off by the state monitoring team.
It was alleged that he had carried out all kinds of surgeries without the necessary expertise, with many people becoming victims of his ineptitude.
