University Cleaner Posing as Surgeon Arrested for Sexual Assault and Fraud
The Ogun State Police Command has made a shocking arrest of a 28-year-old serial impostor who manipulated a young woman by pretending to be a medical surgeon.
Victor Cletus, identified as the suspect, cruelly defrauded and sexually exploited his victim after contacting her through Snapchat while falsely presenting himself as a surgeon working at Babcock University Teaching Hospital.
The Deceptive Scheme Unfolds
According to a statement released by CSP Omolola Odutola, the police spokesperson, the investigation began when the victim filed a distressing report detailing her horrifying experience.
The young woman explained how the suspect reached out to her on Snapchat and convincingly portrayed himself as a qualified medical surgeon. Trusting his fabricated professional credentials, she confided in him about a personal health concern - a suspicious lump she had discovered in her right breast.
Exploiting her vulnerability and trust, the fake surgeon demanded an unspecified amount of money as an operation fee. He deceitfully arranged a meeting for November 18, 2025, under the pretense of performing a surgical procedure to address her medical condition.
The Criminal Revelation
Instead of providing any legitimate medical assistance during their meeting, the impostor sexually assaulted the young woman and additionally stole money directly from her Opay account.
The victim's suspicions intensified the next day when the fake doctor continued to pressure her for sexual intimacy without ever addressing her medical concerns or performing any examination.
Taking initiative, the woman independently contacted Babcock University Teaching Hospital and received the shocking revelation that Victor Cletus was not a medical doctor but actually worked as a cleaner within the hospital facility.
Police Response and Public Warning
The Ogun State Commissioner of Police, CP Lanre Ogunlowo, strongly condemned what he described as a heinous criminal act. He issued a stern warning to online predators and criminal impostors that the Police Command will not tolerate any form of exploitation, deception, or sexual violence targeting females.
CP Ogunlowo urgently advised young women to exercise extreme caution and remain wary of trusting strangers with personal or medical information through online platforms. The police confirmed that the suspect is currently under investigation and will face prosecution according to the law.
This disturbing case highlights the growing dangers of online impersonation and the critical need for public vigilance when forming digital relationships, particularly when sharing sensitive health information.
