Quack doctors use antibiotics to treat barren people.
A fake doctor named Ojo Damilola has made a striking confession of how she had spent years administering injections and drugs on unsuspecting victims.


The quack doctor made the shocking disclosure on Tuesday, March 22, at the Oyo state police headquarters in Eleyele, Ibadan. 

According to the middle-aged woman, many victims including a couple that has been childless for 12 years have come to her for diagnosis and treatment. 


The suspect claimed she studied Laboratory Technology in a university in Ondo state, but had been operating a private hospital, where she paraded herself as a qualified doctor before her arrest. Ojo also said she swindled several people of millions of naira after giving them false impressions that she operated oil and gas business. 

She told newsmen that she collected N22 million from the same woman that consulted her for solution to her years of barrenness. “It is true that I paraded myself as a qualified doctor. When I finished studying Laboratory Technology at a university (name withheld) in Ondo State, I had no job. So I started a hospital. 

I employed a doctor, who I pay N25,000 monthly,” Mrs Ojo confessed. When asked the type of drugs she administered on the childless woman, she said antibiotics, instead of the fertility drugs she told the victims.

Responding to how many patients she had treated, she said: “I do not know. They should be up to 20. I have never performed surgery on any of my patients.” She first operated a hospital with the name at Ologuneru and Moniya in Ido and Akinyele local government areas. 

On her non-existent oil and gas business, she noted that she was also defrauded of the larger chunk of the money by one Ajinikirun. Ojo noted that the police had been on her trail for some time and that as soon as she gets hint of her possible arrest, she changes location. 

One of her victims, Mrs Funke (surname withheld) said: “This woman told me she is a gynecologist at the University College Hospital, Ibadan. I went to her because I have been married for 12 years and yet to have a child. “She treated me and my husband. I paid her N132,000 while my husband paid N86,000. But up till now, we still remain childless. 

After, she said she would introduce a business in oil and gas. She collected N1.35 million.” While parading her, the state commissioner of police, Leye Oyebade said: “The Command carried out intelligence on a suspect, Ojo Damilola, who until her arrest had paraded herself as a medical doctor, treating unsuspecting patients who thought she was working at the University College Hospital, Ibadan. 

“In what appears to be nemesis, Damilola was reportedly defrauded of N48.5 million by Asifu Ajinikirun, another fraudster, who claimed he could help her prepare charms to resuscitate her moribund hospital.” Meanwhile, the Ogun state government has directed that all owners of private health facilities, operating within the state to re-validate their facilities on or before Thursday, March 31. The exercise is part of the governments plan to enhance sanity and eradicate quackery in the health sector.
