A 49-year-old man, Mr Akpoviri Vincent Jimmy who allegedly goes around falsely claiming to be a licensed medical doctor and seeking jobs in Bayelsa and Delta states has been arrested by the police.
Bayelsa police spokesperson Asinim Buswat said the suspect claimed to be one Dr. Charles Umeh, a serving medical doctor in Taraba state before being busted.
Jimmy who hails from Ethiope West local government area of Delta State, was first exposed in Ughelli when he failed to know the correct terminologies a qualified medical doctor should know and use.
He was said to have claimed to be working in a hospital in Bayelsa, prompting the hospital in Ughelli to probe him. Buswat added that he will be charged to court upon conclusion of investigations.
