Police Arrest Fake Doctor Operating Illegally in Bayelsa
Officers from Zone 16 of the Nigeria Police Force have apprehended Doubara Esamasuode, a man posing as a medical doctor without proper licensure, in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State.
The arrest was confirmed in a statement released on Wednesday by the Bayelsa State Police Public Relations Officer, Emonena Gunn.
The statement highlighted the police’s firm dedication to upholding legal standards and safeguarding public safety.
Gunn emphasized that the swift arrest of the fake doctor is part of the police force’s broader efforts to rid the state of unqualified individuals posing a threat to the health and safety of the community.
The suspect had been practicing medicine without the necessary qualifications or a valid license, putting unsuspecting patients at risk.
The police spokesperson also noted that the arrest serves as a stern warning to those engaging in illegal medical practices, reaffirming the police’s commitment to protecting citizens from fraudulent activities.
Authorities have launched an investigation into the extent of Esamasuode’s illegal activities, with a focus on determining how long he had been operating and whether there were any victims who suffered harm under his care.
Gunn concluded by urging the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious medical practitioners or healthcare providers, stressing the importance of consulting only certified professionals for medical treatment.
The police have assured the public that they will continue their efforts to crack down on fraudulent activities and uphold the law to maintain public safety.
Nigerian businessman Isaac Fayose has spoken about what he considers one of the country’s biggest problems, stating that many Nigerians are worried about government taxation, insecurity, and the increasing rate of kidnappings for ransom.
He lamented the situation and criticized the government, arguing that these issues have become deeply rooted and that there appears to be no lasting solution in sight.
According to him “In Nigeria we have two governments. One is collecting tax, the other one is collecting ransom. Both of them have one thing in common which is to make life difficult for their people.
The one that is collecting tax without doing anything will come and share you rice and semolina. The one that is collecting ransom is doing giveaway on social media.”
It was reported that bandits were seen in Kwara State and abducted six residents from Rukpete Village.
The incident was reported to have occurred on June 8 at about 11 p.m.
Sources revealed that seven people were initially taken, but an elderly man was later released, leaving six victims in captivity.
The rising cases of insecurity in the country remain quite alarming.
The state of the country is affecting many people, as they believe nowhere is safe, including schools where they keep their children.
It has been reported that some parents have started withdrawing their children from schools in Abuja.
It can be noted that rumours of bandits being sighted near a school triggered panic, causing parents to hurriedly remove their children for safety.
While the reports of bandits have not been confirmed, the school has also issued safety measures to ensure the protection of students within the premises.
