The Ogun State Police Command has filed a six-count charge bordering on cyberbullying against activist Adetoun Onajobi, popularly known as Just Adetoun, and has declared her evasive after she allegedly failed to honour repeated police invitations.

The charges, now before the Abeokuta Division of the Federal High Court, stem from allegations that Onajobi used social media and other internet-enabled platforms to publish what the police described as false and defamatory accusations against the Ogun State Government and Governor Dapo Abiodun, in violation of the Cybercrimes Act.

In a statement issued on Monday, the Police Public Relations Officer, CSP Oluseyi Babaseyi, said the activist was first invited for questioning on January 2, 2026, but failed to appear.

“On 2nd January, 2026, the Ogun State Police Command invited Adetoun Onajobi for an interview to afford her the opportunity to respond to allegations arising from her online bullying of the Ogun State Governor,” the statement said.

According to the police, Onajobi, through her lawyer, claimed she was medically indisposed and submitted a medical report purportedly issued by a doctor to justify her absence. However, the command said subsequent investigations revealed that the medical report was falsified.

“Discreet investigations by the Police confirmed the falsity of the claims contained in the medical report,” the statement noted.

The police added that the doctor who issued the report was arrested and confessed that the document was fabricated at the instruction of the suspect during a phone conversation.

 

The doctor has since been arraigned before an Ogun State Magistrates’ Court on charges of conspiracy, uttering a false document, and obstructing the course of justice.

Babaseyi stated that since then, Onajobi has allegedly avoided all further attempts by the police to reach her.

“The suspect has remained evasive and has rebuffed every invitation extended to her by the Police. Her current whereabouts are unknown,” he said.

He added that the command would take all lawful steps to ensure her arrest and appearance in court.

“Having reneged on her prior undertaking to honour police invitations, the Command will exhaust all lawful means to apprehend and produce her before the Court to answer the charges already filed against her,” the statement read.

The police also emphasized that freedom of expression, while constitutionally guaranteed, does not shield individuals from criminal liability.

“Constitutionally protected activities such as free speech have lawful limits and do not grant immunity from criminal conduct,” the command stated.

PUNCH Online had earlier reported that the police confirmed inviting Onajobi following a petition over a series of videos she posted on social media criticising Governor Abiodun’s performance in office.

In the videos, the Ogun State-born activist accused the governor of abandoning victims of a road accident involving Nigerian-born British boxer Anthony Joshua, who reportedly lost two friends and trainers when their vehicle collided with a stationary truck on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway in December 2025.

She further alleged that the state government lacked functional ambulances while prioritising expenditure on social events, and claimed that despite this, the government purchased SUVs for local government chairmen in December 2025.

The police said investigations are ongoing and that other individuals allegedly involved in the dissemination of false information are being tracked.
