Monday, January 11, 2016, ace music video director, Akin Alabi, announced the theft of his Toyata ash colour car at a location in Ogba, Lagos on Sunday night.
Alabi has informed his fans on social media that, “My Toyota Matrix car was stolen yesternite (Sunday night) at Ogba; It’s ash in color with number plate FKJ758AM. A press sticker is on the front glass of the car. The theft has been reported at Pen Cinema police station.”
But on Tuesday, a day after the car went missing, the vehicle was found two streets away from where it was stolen.
Alabi confirmed recovery on his vehicle on Tuesday in a post on his Facebook page. He thanked everyone that helped in the process of getting the car back.
“I made a post yesterday morning about the theft of my car. By afternoon, I got a call from someone telling me he saw the car just two streets from where it was stolen.
“I was shocked. We all ran there and lo and behold, it was parked there for real. In fact, the engine was still warm meaning it wasn’t that long that it got packed there.
“If God says NO, nobody can say YES! Jehovah proved himself once again.
“To everyone that reposted, retweeted the post, thank you very much. Please never underestimate the power of social media in broadcasting information. The Police did their own internal radio broadcast but it was social media/WhatsApp broadcasting by you and I that got the car back with God’s backing. Thanks everyone,” he said.
