The Zuba Magistrate Court, has been presented the medical report that would determine the psychiatric evaluation of Obiajulu Ujah.
The Kuje Correctional Centre presented the report to the court showing Obiajulu is not mentally stable.
Obiajulu, a presumed supporter of Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate Peter Obi, caused a stir at the Abuja airport on March 31, after vociferously opposing the May 29 inauguration of President Bola Tinubu. He was subsequently ejected from a Lagos-bound Ibom Air flight

He was arrested and arraigned in April, but was sent to prison for one month to enable medical experts to determine the state of his mental health.
The Chief Medical Officer (CMO) of Kuje Prison in a signed medical report said Obiajulu has a mental disorder.
Magistrate Abdulazeez Ismail Muhammad at the last sitting at the FCT Magistrate Court in Zuba, subpoenaed the Controller General of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS).
The Kuje Correctional Centre CMO was also summoned to “provide his opinion in writing as to the state of mind of Ujah, who is said to be mentally-challenged”.
With this new development, Obiajulu will know his fate at the next hearing in the matter adjourned to the 15th day of June, 2023.
