“When I got there, I asked where is Asher, they searched, they did not see my son’s name on the list at the Police station. I had to ask my son to call Asher’s colleague again, he now called the person, if it was old GRA Police station or not.
“The person said I should come to the Surveillance Office, upstairs at Old GRA Police station. I waited that Tuesday till 7p.m., one of the Policewomen told me to come back on Wednesday. On Wednesday, the Police took I and my wife with other people to the company, NNPC Upstream and Down Stream, at Moscow Road.
“So, I asked them to show me where the boy fell from. They said nobody really know if he fell from the 2, 3 4, 5, 6, 7 or the last floor.
“I asked them how the boy look like, they said he is with empty body. So, I asked them to show me the place. They went to show me the place. I have pictures of the place they claim he fell. I looked at the place, there is no sign that somebody fell from there.”
