A cleaner pretending to be a surgeon working at the Babcock University Teaching Hospital in ogun State has been arrested for allegedly assaulting a patient he met on snapchat.
According to the Ogun State Police Command 28yrs old Victor Cletus a serial impostor sexually exploited and a young female victim while pretending to be a medical doctor.
A statement from CSP Omolola Odutola, spokesperson of the command, said the arrest followed a distressing report lodged by the victim, who narrated how the suspect contacted her on Snapchat and falsely presented himself as a surgeon at Babcock University Teaching Hospital. Believing his fabricated credentials, she confided in him a medical concern involving a lump in her right breast.
‘’Taking advantage of her vulnerability, the suspect fraudulently demanded an unspecified amount of money as a supposed operation fee and deceitfully instructed her to meet him for a surgical procedure on 18/11/2025. Instead of offering any medical help, he sexually abused her and also stole money from her Opay account.
“The victim’s suspicion grew the following day when the fake doctor persisted in demanding sexual intimacy without conducting any medical procedure. She independently contacted Babcock University Teaching Hospital and was shocked to learn that Victor Cletus is not a doctor but a cleaner in the hospital. The suspect is being investigated and will be prosecuted accordingly,” Odutola said
