N10,000 Reward - Help Me Find My Friend by Nobody: 12:52am On Oct 24, 2015 |
We used to ride together in the early 80's in Lagos, Abeokuta and Ibadan. Known facts: His name is Dare, he wrote DareDevil on his bike. He used to ride a Suzuki GT550 which he later sold to a University of Ife student. He lived in I think Agege. I know that international airliners coming in for landing in Lagos used to blind us with landing lights. His Dad lived in Abeokuta on a pretty big sized land. I remember him to be very tall. I used to ride an ex Army Tirumph Tiger 750 and later a BMW early K or R Last time I saw him was at the departure lounge of Murtala when I was leaving the country 30 years ago (we had lost contact before then due to school). Thanks guys, it means a lot to me as he was my road Dog. 1 Like 1 Share

Lemme get this straight, I find this friend of yours who was last seen by you about thirty years ago and N10,000 is all you can offer as incentive? What if I kidnap him and ask for a ransom? 18 Likes 2 Shares |

With this faint details, anyone that finds such a long lost friend of over 30 years deserves a million pounds. Maybe u actually wanted to type Ten Million Naira and fell short of three zeroes. Even if a dog is given that task for that amount, he will only laugh and walk away despite the number of bones it can purchase. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Try Facebook, spokeo.com or pipl.com Type the full name and something might come up. Try his sister or close relative you know then send my money to the nearest orphanage in Ibadan 1 Like 1 Share |

sultaan: Thanks for the very intelligent response Sultaan. I've been trying Facebook and known biker sites in Nigeria. I think when I come home next I'll see if I can find a PI in Lagos. I'm working with very sparse info which is all I have. Thanks once again. |

kunle75: Thank you very much for the astute suggestion. I'm elated to read from non juvenile delinquents. Yes I've been searching like that for years now with no success though I did find my high school girlfriend. 3 Likes |

EgunMogaji:I really feel emotional about your search. I also lost a contact with someone and bump on him recently on Facebook. I pray you find him, But instead of searching for him, just search for any of his known relatives, like his brothers, sisters, or a parent. 1 Like |

No real info. provided. Okay. First name: Dare. Which school did you know he ever attended and or where? Road dogs of those days are rich kids. Saw him last 30 years ago? Then he will be around 55yrs old or more now? Him papa a civil servant or politician? And 10k way too small. 5 Likes |

ManTiger: Thanks ManTiger. It's been 30 years and that's all the info that I have. Trust me I've been trying all I can to figure out more information. He was really there for me and it's time for him to reap his reward. Thanks once again. 4 Likes |

You will have to wait let me consult some gods. But I can't take 10k as reward. |

I guess you lost all your connections so I suggest you start with your long lost gf. Let her connect with her friends or whoever knew you guys back then.... someone must know or heard something about him.... a baby mother... a son/daughter... location... company he worked for... house he bought/built... parents location....somebody will know somebody that knows something about him.....even if it's his correct name. Which spots did you guys hang out a lot?....older heads from there or around there may have tit bits. Take money/reward out of the equation...it will just cause problems. I wish you best of luck. |
Re: N10,000 Reward - Help Me Find My Friend by Nobody: 4:36pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
Originalsly: I know that he worked for an elevator repair company. So I need to look for names of elevator repair companies in Lagos in the 80's. I hear you about the reward, it brought out the dense of the section but it's too late to remove it now. Thanks for your suggestion, I appreciate you. |
Re: N10,000 Reward - Help Me Find My Friend by Originalsly: 4:55pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
Google may not be of much help.....he may very well be still working there. In what area?...what colour uniform and if any?... what vehicle they used?....which company you know he usually go fix their elevators?....that can give you links. Again..good luck. |

I hope you find your missing "Road Dog" hehe, it sounds funny but i think what you mean is "Road Dawg" |
Re: N10,000 Reward - Help Me Find My Friend by Nobody: 8:03pm On Nov 11, 2015 |
Sanchase: Thanks. I typed what I meant to type, Road Dog.

guess you should contact motoringNg (dat guy that posted about bikers convention/get together). he might know someone who knows someone who might actually know him. I feel the burning desire in your heart to find him. Goodluck sir 1 Like |

DGD1:Forget it... 30years ago? He must be close to 60years of age. I guess he won't be a biker anymore. |
Re: N10,000 Reward - Help Me Find My Friend by DGD1(m): 6:17pm On Dec 21, 2015 |
ophilly: yeah, you are right. I said he is possible to meet someone who might by chance know him. you will understand me better if you know little about the algorithm facebook uses to connect friends via mutual friends. not going to be easy though |
Re: N10,000 Reward - Help Me Find My Friend by Nobody: 6:46pm On Dec 21, 2015 |
ophilly: You may be right. Though we should be about the same age and I am still very much a biker but he might have become a big Chief/Alhadji/CEO |
Re: N10,000 Reward - Help Me Find My Friend by Nobody: 8:34pm On Dec 21, 2015 |
EM, it might be worth trying The Names Database, I used it in the past pre-Facebook, and even post-Facebook when Facebook drew blanks of certain searches. Even friends who moved in your circles back then might be worth a shot. I wish you all the best in your quest. 1 Like |

I came across another bit of information, he worked for Otis Elevators in Lagos. I have emailed their offices that I could find online. |
