The source said since his disappearance, his mobile line had been unavailable therefore efforts to reach him on the phone or via text message have been futile.


According to the family source, Esezobor is married but does not have any child yet.

A week after he went missing, the family said they sent an email to the Nigerian Embassy in Dubai but to date, they had not received any response from the embassy.

“He has been missing for more than two weeks now with no traces of him. Messages sent to him didn’t deliver and his direct line has been switched off. His wife, parents, siblings and I have tried all we could to get in touch but all to no avail.

“I also called if the Nigerian Embassy in Dubai can help but there’s no solution,” the family source said.

When contacted, the Head of Media, Nigerians in Diaspora (NIDCOM), AbdulRahman Adekunle, said the commission was not aware of the incident.

He advised the family to lodge an official complaint to the commission.

He said, "I'm just hearing this from you. We are not aware. There should be a letter from the family to Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, addressed to the Chairman and CEO of the commission.

"They don't have to bring it physically. They can send it to us through our email. That is when we can see what yhey can do about it

He fit dey AWI dey chop parata ....I beg the guy dey safe where he dey.. only thing is that his phone has been seized but he will get it back. I beg make the family no worry. Na normal thing for dubai

I just hope he has not been killed again by the cannibals (Dubai Chapter) just like Abioye Oladeji was killed.

noo he may be in jail.... but he will come out as pong as its not a drug related crime.

My best advice to his family is to contact all the prisons in UAE and provide them with the guys name and passport number. Dubai prison system is advanced, if he is in there custody they will surely inform the family, the family can even do western union money transfer for him from here. People disappear everyday into prisons in Dubai..it's a very normal thing in dubai
