Good day Nairalanders. I seriously need your advice and suggestions on a critical issue. Without wasting much of your time, i'l quickly give a summary of the problem.

There is this friend of mine who is a student of mass communication in Unijos. He's an orphan with just a few family who really care about his existence; he has been strugling all along on his own. Before he got the ission, he was working and living fine, and was really generous to people around him.
I can recall he told me about a law guy whom he met through a friend during his ission struggles. This law guy was already in his final year then. Being an active guy on the campus, he promised to help my friend secure the ission. Along the line, they became really close that my friend was of a great help to him during his project and other things.

The problem now is that, two weeks ago, my friend called that he was travelling down to Lagos from Jos to the guy's place to see if he cud get something doin while the holiday lasts.

Quite alright, my friend was in Lagos. He called me that he had arrived to the guy's place, and was doing fine. Three day's later, we spoke again and he told me arrangements were on- going to see to it that he gets something doing.. For a week, i didn't try to reach him again and i didn't get his call either. I decided to call him four days ago. To My greatest shock, his phone was answered by his host. He said my friend who's approximately thirty years old disappeared into the thin air since yesterday. According to him, he gave my friend his atm card to help him get some cash, and since then, he has not heard from or seen him. I called him the next day to know if there was any developement, but nothing positive was said. He Said he has already made report to the police stations around.
The worst part of it all it is that he has switched off my friend's phone, hence keeping me in he dark altogether.
The Poinst i want to raise are:
1 I'm sure my friend can never abscond with his money and atm card

though nobody deserves a 100% trust.
2- how could my friend leave his phone at home when going to the atm?
3- could he have been duped and kidnapped at the atm?

I'm so confused here. I don't think anyone else knows about his journey apart from me. i'm his only advocate on earth. I don't know anything about his host, not even his name. I Need your opinions please.

This is really serious o

The police is ur best bet now

Oh my God.

Did the guy said he received any alert of the withdrawal How much Exactly

if your friend still have any family. pls. quickly inform them of the situation.

Go to the police station and report too.

I hope you guys will be able to track the other friend. he should be hold responsible. The key to finding your friends lies with him.

Who does that kind of thing these days, leaving a phone behind and disappearing.

I pray we won't fall victim of Evil Friends

i'd advice that you make an official report at the police station (just to be on the safe side...for both of you), then make efforts to the few family you mentioned. really unfortunate situation, but fortunate for him there's a friend like you. The SSS can track down the last known location of your friends phone and call records to filter the host's number, but i think you need a special clearance for that (an insider could help though).

He said he has reported to the police, go and tender your own police report. but since you don't know his name or address,maybe you give the police your friend's number and facebook ID. I believe there must be something that will lead to the said guy if you motivate the police, you understand nah. wishing you goodluck.

You call yourselves friends and he hid that much detail from you? That's not too good.


You say you're his only advocate on earth and you didn't bother asking for details? You didn't try at all.


Now after apportioning blames, I'd like to make this brief:

1. Pray for him

2. If you happen to know any of those relatives that don't care about him, make it known to them.

3. Report to police stations near you.

4. Employ an hacker and when next the phone is on, call it and track it.

5. Find out who the guy is from his department, that'll will be hard but it's worth trying.

6. Never stop trying the number.

7. Pray for him

8. Pray for him

9. Pray for him

10. Pray for him.

I'm just spitballing.

This one na gbege. E my experience abeg.

..

I hope he has not used your friend for ritual?. The story he gave isn't adding up.

Since he's an orphan he should have Uncles or relatives you could reach and submit your findings. That his friend is up to no good and should be arrested.

okay

op i think you need to report this issue to the police as soon as possible and also to any of his relatives you know

Op what's the name of this movie?

He has been kidnapped and dupes it's so fvcking obvious. Trust No one my dear

Hmmmmm ..., it's well

too bad but try to get in touch with any of the few relatives u mentioned.and keep trying the host's number with true caller so that u can identify him by his name.

don't understand oooo

A boy go to ATM and didn't return

THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE. YOU SHOULD HAVE REQUESTED FROM YOUR MISSING FRIEND THE BIO DATA OF HIS HOST IN LAGOS. ATLEAST HIS FACEBOOK . NOTHING EVIL WILL HAPPEN TO YOUR GUY INSHA ALLAH
