Na you talk kidnapping oooo.Abi you know something?

lol 😂

Engineer is an official title too, you earn the title when you r successfully certified by COREN. Ordinary graduate of any engineering course is a Mr/Miss/Mrs. until certified by COREN.

GboyegaD:
Hopefully, nothing bad happened to them.

Just curious, what is it with the title. Yes, they are engineers but can't they go by Mr. or Dr. if they hold a doctorate degree? Why are they addressed as Engineer?

lightwind:
How come you go Lagos from Calabar ended up in Imo state

What is your question, exactly? Please read the report again but this time slowly for better comprehension.

Creamypie:
Lets hope the car has likely been robbed by customs. They most likely have been arrested. On 2020, Na so customs seize my guy car for Benin by not far from orhe. He checked all the customs offices in that zone made written report, they denied it and No result. He reported to all police stations in that zone. No way. Only for him to be called by one police station that the car having the same chassis has been found and was sold by 2 customs officers and another set of new papers made by them. As at when they seized the vehicle, my guy refused to give them the papers. As we speak, custom dey beg seriously

Maybe custom people seized the car used by those lecturers and kpaied them.

Since Balabu entered that seat, Custom has been doing alot of impunity

Unicross dey different from Unical ?

The online community is really dangerous this days ,people are online preying for individuals with money ,it’s risky to post anything online this days ,someone could claim to be a car dealer knowing fully well that once they say they want to buy a car ,that the cash is available,all they need to do is lure you to them and kidnap the person ,have them deposit all the k money and sometimes kill them ,it happened to firman generators,becareful out there

Why does it bother you that they are addressed by what they are?

There is nothing wrong with addressing an Engineer as an Engineer

Wetin carry them reach Imo state na my question ?


Oboy u be old nairaland member o since 2006.

Just a year after nairaland was created

Negroid001:
NIgeria police can track them. Just that they have to be bribed to do their job.

You just spoke my mind.

I guess that's why the matter has lingered since May 23, 2025.

The policemen may have asked the family to provide an exorbitant amount of money for tracking.

Possibly, they could not afford the bill, so they cried out in the public space.

Now, the of Imo Police has to show that he is competent enough to track the missing people.

I sincerely hope that google map did not ask them to follow through Ihiala-Orlu-Umuahia to Calabar. I do sincerely hope.

I pray they are found.

Truly, there is nothing wrong. I also feel there is nothing wrong if people are addressed by their name or with a Mr. if necessary.

uniquelyspecial:

It doesn't bother me but it makes me feel this is part of the root cause of our situation as a country.

What do you mean ordinary graduate? That said, does addressing an Engineer Mr./Mrs./Miss/Ms. change the fact that the person is an Engineer?

BeginsAtHome:
Would ask same for a Barrister Engineers are professionals. Engr, Dr, Barr., Etc. Only teachers are exempt from carrying their professional prefixes. I guess because their reward is usually in heaven.

Everyone is a professional in his/her own career depending on the level of technical know how s/he has.

That said, in recent times, when I try to analyze the Nigerian situation, I feel the fundamental challenge is in our culture. Ours is a class system that gives too much attention to class and leads to impunity of all kinds. Everyone tries to oppress the other with who they are or whatever they think they have achieved and this is the reason the rot is getting deep.

eneyoduke:
Was the car for their personal use? Oh God help them wherever they're!!!

..so they could not buy the car in cross rivers state where they base and live

Imo State?

I hope they didn't take Orlu Road from Anambra...if they did.... sorry o!

DeltaBachelor:
Unicross dey different from Unical ?

Yes

Unicross is a state university while unical is a federal university

In one breath they say they are missing the they are demanding their release! Are they assuming that they were kidnapped?

No be imo state again! They have entered groove ..when they finish, they return home without the car

Hope these car robbers have not eliminated them and make away with their new car.... Imo is now very scary.

The fact that they got missing when they reached Imo St on their way from Lagos is very alarming. Security situation in Imo State is frightening in recent times. Just last week, an America returnee was shot dead in Owerri and his wife kidnapped. I pray for their safe return.

Where's the link to the American story
