The Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) Friday distanced itself from the alleged impersonator, Opeyemi Adesina who was recently nabbed by the police.
Adesina, 43, was arrested by the Alakara Police Division for allegedly parading himself as a Consultant Gynaecologist with the hospital.
Also discovered in his possession were seven forged certificates, which he reportedly confessed to have paid N100, 000 for their production.
Reacting to the report, LUTH assured the public that the suspect has never worked for the hospital.
A statement signed by the hospital’s spokesperson, Kelechi Otuneme reiterated that the institution does not employ quacks.
“The Management wishes to reiterate that Mr. Opeyemi Adesina is not an employee of the Hospital in any capacity. The Hospital assures the general public and its esteemed patients that quacks are not employed by the Hospital,” he said.
