He added that he had been basking in excitement and waiting for his son’s arrival to celebrate the result. He said, “He told me on the phone that he was at a motor park and that the bus would soon take off.
“One hour later, I tried to get across to him, but his line indicated that it was not reachable. I became confused when it was evening and I did not hear from him. “I called his friend’s mother, but she was confused too. We have been in darkness since then. We have no idea of where he could have gone to.
I just pray he is safe wherever he may be. I jubilated when he informed me that he had collected his result and I promised him a special celebration. He was preparing for his NYSC. The family is in deep sorrow now. Her mother has been crying.” Valentine’s mother, Ronke Jegede, who also spoke with PUNCH Metro, appealed to the public to avail the family of any information that could lead to her son’s whereabouts.
