A student of the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso, who is being detained by the police for allegedly setting up a Twitter parody account of former President Goodluck Jonathan, has been denied access to his lawyers .
Babatunde Olusola has been detained at the Force Criminal Investigation Department, Abuja , for the last two months for being unable to meet his bail conditions
Activist, Tope Akinyode, told The PUNCH that attempts by him to see the detained student were rebuffed at the FCIID Headquarters , Abuja .
Akinyode said “ Twice , I was denied access to see Olusola last week . I was told the IPO ( Investigating Police Officer) has to give his approval before I see him . There’ s no law that says a lawyer must obtain an IPO’ s permit before he sees his client . This disgusting trend must stop. We will challenge it.
“ The last time I saw him , he told me he was sick and he had symptoms of coronavirus. The fear was actually high because a fellow inmate , a Chinese by name , Mr Wan was confirmed positive
“ But apart from that , he may also have had some other underlying health issues because he told me that after he was taken from Ogbomoso to Ibadan , he slept on urine at the SARS office in Ibadan . That was part of the harsh conditions he underwent .”
It was learnt that Olusola , who is a student of Chemical Engineering, has no parents and has been unable to get a surety which must be a Level 15 civil servant .
The student was arraigned in Abuja for impersonating Jonathan with his parody account .

A parody account is a type of profile on social media that is named after popular persons and used mainly for comic purposes . Twitter rules allow for parody accounts on the condition that the operator of the account indicates this on his profile page which Olusola did.
According to several tweets, the student, Babatunde Olusola, reportedly set up an account on Twitter using Jonathan ’s profile photo with the name Goodluck E. Jonathan but with the handle, ‘@jayythedope ’ .
Through the handle , Olusola reportedly fired many witty comments including some subtle jabs at Jonathan ’s wife, Patience .

However , the student was said to have been arrested on May 23 , 2020.
Policemen were said to have obtained information of Olusola’ s call log record from a telecommunications service provider.
The call history linked him to his uncle , a pastor in Ogbomoso, Oyo State , who was immediately placed under house arrest by the Special Anti- Robbery Squad operatives and was ordered to invite Olusola to his residence for onward arrest , which was done .
Akinyode said Olusola was subsequently taken to Abuja .
He said , “ I was informed that it was one of the aides to former President Jonathan that saw the parody account on Twitter and informed his boss. Jonathan immediately reported to the IG and that was how investigations began .
“ Olusola was subsequently arrested at Ogbomoso and brought down to Abuja .”
The student was subsequently charged for impersonation and contravening the Cybercrime ( Prohibition , Prevention , Etc) Act of 2015.
His bail was fixed at N 500, 000 while a civil servant of not less than level 15 is expected to stand as his surety.
The Spokesman for Jonathan, Ikechukwu Eze , did not respond to calls on Saturday ditto for the Force Public Relations Officer, DCP Frank Mba.

Nigeria needs overhauling..I guess we all should be evacuated, the nation gets fumigated and the few who gets fortunate, return to enjoy the clean land!
Something is just not right somewhere ^everywhere!

Lalasticalala what do you think?

Sorry Olusola... I hope others will learn from this unfortunate arrest of Olusola and desist from such. This is Nigeria where you've got to have sense.

The law should always be the guide in making decisions. If the law say he is entitled to a lawyer, then, let him have one.
.
The young man will be living his worse kind of life right now. I can feel every whit of fear in him right now. God help him!!

If it was Buhari or Osinbajo, some people will start shouting their lungs out, calling them different names, hypocrite.

Yoruba people I God help us

I heard he is Yoruba ,he should be denied food as well ,you think you can tarnish the image of gej useless boy parody kee u there

he is making money with gej personality ,I saw for ad and promotions pls contact so so person and I'm very sure this Yoruba boy voted for buhari

When will people learn to do things right? That twitter account is NOT a parody account a parody account has to explicitly say it is a parody.

The "not GEJ" disclaimer doesn't work as the name there didn't say "GEJ" it Says Goodluck E. Jonathan. Even twitter rules and regulations are clear on serting up parody accounts.

But that as it is, he should be legally tried and not detained for as long as the police wishes

D guy clearly bleeped up... He shud have written clearly that it is a parody account...

Writing not GEJ doesn't make sense enough

bloggers! he must be one of those fake bloggers. I hate Nigeria bloggers. sharing fake and unverified news.

Imagine, someone that have no parent. He can't face his life squarely but resorted in impersonating & tarnishing ones image. I have no pity for him. Just like many of them here, he's a Buhari asslicker! Karma visited him so fast. This will serve as a deterrent to other urchins of his likes.

The ineffectual buffon Jonathan, the guy is angry because of Deziani flat booobs he can't Access anymore

GEJ green snake under green grass

You will never see youth condeming this wickedness, but had it been it was an old politician that is been treated like this,our senseless youth would have rush to the street to protest for him. For example just look at this threat, had it been it was about fayose been denied his lawyer this threat for don reach 95 pages.
Useless youth
