The family of a 20-year-old, AbdulBasit Muhammad, has sought for public assistance in locating him.
AbdulBasit lives in Lagos with his uncle, Taiwo Adesina in Igbede area of the state.
Since February 12 when he left home to register for the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board’s Unified Tertiary and Matriculation Examination at Ajangbadi area from where he was expected to head to his workplace his whereabouts has remained unknown.
That narrative was made by Mr Adesina in an interview with newsmen in which the man said he waited for him to return home on the fateful day in vain and resorted to report to the police.
“He left home around 8 a.m. for his JAMB capturing in Ajangbadi. I expected him back at night because he usually goes to work afterwards and returns by 9 p.m.
“I waited from 9 p.m. till late, but he never returned. This has never happened before, so I immediately reported to the police.
“Before reporting, some people called demanding N40,000 for his release. I told them I only had N20,000 and sent it. Since then, their numbers have not been reachable. I informed the police about everything,” Punchng quoted him as saying.
“I am appealing to the public to help us find him. I can be reached on 09037316811,” the uncle was said to have further told the publication.
