Continuing, he said, Philip, aged 45, was last seen in April 2024 after the said crime.

“We have sent messages to our family members across the country to be on the look out for him. But we know that even if he comes out today, he would have the laws of the land to deal with. So, we just hope he is safe wherever he is,” he added.

According to Oviri, of No. 62 Cemetary Road Sapele in Sapele Local Government Area of Delta State, Emese is a legitimate member of his community in Abraka.

That Philip Umukoro and himself were always meeting together or attending club together.
