One Aiyu Eromosele Thomas, a Bolt driver who was missing since February is reported recovered dead by police.
The 34- year-old until his demise was residing at 70 Imole Avenue, Ajasa Command, Lagos.
Report has it that the hailing app driver was booked by an unidentified passenger in his Toyota Corolla with registration number GGE583GX grey colour 2005/6 model.
A Police patrol team discovered the vehicle abandoned by the roadside at Ojota, Lagos.
In a report by Daily Trust, the deceased brother, Aiyu Etiose Godwin said the matter was first reported at Meiran Police station before it was escalated to the headquarters of the state police Command.
He said that his brother left the house on the 1st of February 2023 at around 7:30 am for his hailing app driving. Since he did not return and his phone was off, it created panic in the family.
“The family’s effort to know his whereabouts proved abortive, hence we reported to Meiran divisional Police headquarters. The Bolt Rider Company where he registered the car for commercial use were contacted and the company provided the Police with some information to aid in the investigation,” he said.
“Around 14th of February 2023, the Meiran Police decided to transfer the case to a special unit under the CP at Lagos State Police Command Headquarter Ikeja, for further and advance investigation,” he continued.
The Police at the state Command promised the family that a thorough investigation would be carried out. But as weeks rolled by without any information, the mother and the entire family were in panic.
However, it was gathered on Saturday that the driver’s corpse was found somewhere around Ketu.
