The federal government has filed criminal charge against Emorioloye Owolemi, a resident of Ondo state, over a case of alleged cyberstalking involving Olubumi Tunji-Ojo, minister of interior.
The two-count charge against Owolemi was instituted at the
federal high court in Akure, Ondo state capital.
“That you, EMORIOLOYE OWOLEMI, Male, Adult, on or about the
23rd day of December 2025, at Igbokoda in Ilaje Local Government Area of Ondo
State, within the jurisdiction of this Honourable Court, did knowingly and
intentionally sent messages and/or other electronic communications through a
computer system and/or network to the public via Facebook, against the
Honourable Minister of interior of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Olubunmi
Tunji- Ojo, whose messages were grossly offensive, indecent, obscene, or menacing
in character, thereby committing the offence of cyberstalking,” part of the
charge sheet reads.
The case has been fixed for March 26, 2026, for hearing.
In December 2025, Owolemi made a series of posts on Facebook
alleging that the interior minister forged his West African Senior School
Certificate Examination (WASSCE) result.
A review of Owolemi’s Facebook page shows he is a member of
the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In January, TheCable reported that that the West African
Examinations Council (WAEC) authenticated the WASSCE result of Tunji-Ojo
following allegations surrounding the minister’s academic records.
The attestation certificate, made available to TheCable by
the minister’s media office, bears the minister’s full name, date of birth,
embossed photograph, original certificate number and official authentication
markings.
The WAEC document, titled Attestation of Results, states
that Tunji-Ojo attended the Staff Secondary School at the Federal University of
Technology, Akure, and sat for the Senior Secondary School Examination in June
1999.
The grades recorded show that the minister earned B3 in
Economics, B2 in Mathematics, A1 in Agricultural Science, B3 in Biology, C6 in
Chemistry, C6 in English Language, A1 in Yoruba Language, C6 in Further
Mathematics, and B3 in Physics.
There has also been controversy on the authenticity of the
National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) certificate submitted by the minister.
Premium Times had reported that NYSC management confirmed
the authenticity of Tunji-Ojo certificate presented before the senate for
screening after the publication’s investigation faulted the certificate.
