During a brief interrogation, Abraham said he was taken away from his area by some people who promised to take him to Mr Biggs
"They told me that we were going to Mr. Biggs"he said
According to Punch, Abraham said he is a nursery one pupil of the New Way Nursery and Primary School here in Lagos and that his mother sells recharge card in their area. He however was not able to state where they live exactly in Lagos. He only mentioned they stay around a canal. He also could not give the names of his father and mother, referring to them as Mummy Sarah and Daddy Sarah, after his older sister.
The state Police spokesperson, Mr Ajetobi said they have not been able to make any contact with the boy's family because he has not been able to give the names of his parents
"The police found him on Sunday at the Foursquare Gospel Church, Imedu Nla, Mowe. We suspected that Adeyemi must have been kidnapped in Lagos and dumped here in Ogun State. This is because the boy kept telling the police that he lives in Canal; and we all know that canals are common in Lagos. We are not sure whether any ransom has been demanded. The boy is currently with us.” he said
If anyone knows the boy...please let his family know...
