A Lagos Magistrate's Court has ordered the remand of 27-year-old TikToker Oladimeji Hammed, known as Immunizer, on charges of cyberbullying and online harassment against Omowunmi Aloba, the widow of late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad. Hammed was arraigned on Tuesday on six counts related to cyberstalking and publishing harmful online content.
The defendant pleaded not guilty to all charges. The prosecution accused Hammed of using his social media platforms to disseminate insulting, provocative, and harmful material targeting the 26-year-old widow. The court granted him bail, requiring two sureties each with a bank account balance of at least N700,000, one of whom must be a civil servant and the other a blood relative, both needing to provide proof of tax compliance.
That you, Oladimeji Hammed, a.k.a. Immunizer, on February 8, 2026, within the jurisdiction of this honourable court, knowingly caused to be sent through a computer system and network a message stating that Omowunmi Cynthia Aloba wanted to leave Nigeria before justice was served for Mohbad, and thereby committed an offence punishable under the Cybercrimes (Prohibition, Prevention, etc.) Act, 2015, as amended.
According to the charge sheet, one alleged offense occurred on February 8, 2026, when Hammed posted that Omowunmi was planning to flee Nigeria before justice could be served regarding her husband's death. Other charges include sharing publications on February 11 insinuating the widow failed to respond to infidelity allegations in court, and on February 19, claiming private materials belonging to her had been leaked online.
Further allegations state that on March 14, Hammed published a video containing derogatory remarks and accusations, suggesting the widow had a hidden agenda concerning her late husband's affairs. Prosecutors contend that between February 8 and March 14, Hammed engaged in a pattern of online harassment, intentionally sending insulting and abusive communications via social media to cause emotional distress.
