Lagos police seek help in reuniting 83-year-old man with his family

The Lagos State Police Command has sought public assistance in reuniting an elderly man with his family.

A statement from the command says the man identified as Mr. Oriowo Gabriel, aged 83 years, was found by a kind-hearted member of the public and subsequently taken into protective Police custody at Ipaja Division, where he is currently safe and well cared for. 

The police say efforts by the Police to trace his family using the addresses he provided yielded no result as the addresses have been visited and no one has been able to identify or locate his relatives.

The Command humbly appealed to anyone who knows Mr. Oriowo Gabriel or has any information that could assist in reuniting him with his family or loved ones to kindly contact the DPO, Ipaja Division, on +234 803 799 3827.
