"You can continue to rollover the funds in your business or Fix the fund in an investment account that has flexible withdrawal plan. He might be in EFCC custody or prison or traveled since his TikTok account was deleted. My mechanic has had a similar experience before… a customer brought his car, paid for the work and didn’t come back for his car for three good years. Numbers were not reachable, no call or trace either… the mechanic had even moved to another location by the time he returned from his “travel” but he was able to track him and everything was resolved."

@Chimaizuobi said:

"I dunno, cars depreciate. I’d advise you sell the car and put the money in an investment account. One day, you’d know what actually happened to him. He could be sick, dead, in prison; no one knows."
