A Nigerian man, 44-year-old Ekechukwu Sunday Prince, is wanted for stealing a company car just a day after being hired. The incident was shared on X (formerly Twitter), detailing how Prince, employed on November 13, allegedly took a black 2016 Honda CRV with plate number LSD 75 GK from his new employer on November 14 and disabled its tracking system.
According to the post, the car was last spotted at a mechanic shop before going off the radar. The company, @C24mobilegadgets, released Prince’s information, including his last known address in Lekki, Ajah, Lagos, in hopes of locating him.
Since the post went public, social media users have reacted with concern, sharing advice and helping spread the information to aid in recovering the stolen vehicle.
