In his words:

"Nigerians, please help me. My son has a car, and the car is with Lycon Autos. Although the car is not new, it is an SUV jeep. We went together to buy it. Lycon Autos assigned a driver for him that day to bring the car home. Then Destiny now decided to start using the driver for his personal use. The driver said Destiny owed him, so he took the car back to where we bought it, and I don’t have his number. If the car were to be here, I would have picked it up.”
