Adejobi had confirmed the arrest on Thursday, July 4.

“The videos were later found to be scripted.

“He has been warned to avoid pranks that could cause public unrest.

“While encouraging positive creativity amongst the youthful populace, the NPF urges content creators to responsibly use social media and avoid spreading misinformation that may incite public disorder,” Adejobi said.
