Authorities of Solid Model college, a boarding school in Abule-Iroko, Ogun state, are currently looking for a man, who abandon his three children in the school, for eight years.
The man, Mr. Segun Adepegba, enrolled his children in the boarding school, because he could not afford to take care of them after he broke up with his wife in 2007, with a promise to check on them, but never did.
The school proprietor, Mr Samuel Ayegbusi, said, the school had expended over N7m on the upkeep of the kids since 2007, adding that several efforts to reach the man, hits the rocks.
"Whenever we called him and he realized who was talking on the phone, he would switch off his phones and for the next two weeks, the numbers would not be available. When we contacted his sister, we were told that, they had traveled out of the country.
"The kids, Seun, 14, Seyi, 10, and Titilayo, 13, have been longing to see their parents. Titilayo, who could not bear the absence of her parents, has vowed to escape from the hostel to look for her father.
