A 43-year-old realtor named Jimi Folarin has been reported missing in Lagos, Nigeria. He was last seen on Wednesday, October 30, after receiving a call from a client to check on properties in the Imota area of Ikorodu.

Folarin left his home at 4 PM but has not been reachable since. His sister, Iremide Omowunmi, shared her worries with Vanguard, expressing her fear for her brother’s safety. The family is growing increasingly concerned as they have not heard from him, and his phone has remained silent.

As the search continues, the family is appealing to the public for any information that could help locate Jimi Folarin. His loved ones hope for his safe return and urge anyone with knowledge of his whereabouts to come forward.

“At about 4 PM, my brother called me to say that the clients he was waiting for had contacted him to come and inspect the properties. This was exactly at 4 PM.

My brother is a real estate agent who sells land and assists people in buying land. Around 5pm, I tried calling him to see if he had arrived, but although the phone rang, he did not pick up. I thought maybe he was busy with the clients, so I stopped calling. It wasn’t until 10pm that I tried reaching him again, but he still didn’t respond. I then texted him on WhatsApp, but he didn’t reply either, which is unlike him.

While I was calling him, my brother’s friend was also trying to reach him. After a while, a strange number called my brother’s friend, asking who he wanted to speak to. When my brother’s friend questioned the caller, they immediately hung up.

This morning, I called that strange number, and the person answered. But when I asked for Folarin, my brother, they abruptly ended the call. I have reported the case to the Gbogbo Police Station in Ikorodu,” she said
