A man identified as Ajibola Abidemi Arije, who was declared missing after leaving for work in Ibadan on Friday, has been found alive.

Mr Arije’s wife, Olajumoke Arije, announced the development on Facebook on Wednesday.

“My husband Arije Abidemi Ajibola has been found,” Ms Arije stated. “Thank you all for the post.”

Ms Arije noted that her husband was currently receiving treatment in a medical facility.

“Please take it easy with the questions and the calls. I am not yet with him. He is currently getting medical attention. I just needed to calm the atmosphere.

“Please we need to stabilise things at the moment, kindly share this so many people can have peace of mind, more info will be shared later.”

Mr Arije was declared missing when he did not return home after leaving for work last Friday.

Noting that all efforts to locate the victim were to no avail, Ms Arije appealed to the public to help with any useful information about her husband.
