The mystery sorrounding the
disappearance of Ademola Mohammed Owolana, the son of popular Lagos socialites,
Debo and Bola Owolana, ended in tragedy, when his body was found last night.
It’s not clear how the body of
Ademola Owolana, 26, ended up on top of a retired Metra Electric rail
His body found at the Metra
Electric Kensington Rail Yard in Chicago’s West Pullman neighborhood.
A family spokesperson confirmed
this sad development.
It’s not clear how the body of
Owolana, 26, ended up on top of a retired Metra Electric rail car.
The young man from London was in
Chicago with his mother, Bola Owolana to visit relatives.
Crisis responder Andrew Holmes
spent time tonight consoling Owolana’s grieving mother.
“I really, really didn’t want to
turn out this way,” Holmes said. “She didn’t want to take her son back home
like this.”
Owolana was last seen early
Saturday morning leaving a club in West Pullman after a night of drinking. The
family said he took off on foot when a relative wouldn’t give up the car keys.
His loved ones had been on a
desperate search ever since. That search ended Tuesday afternoon when his body
was found in the Kensington Rail Yard, not far away from where he disappeared.
“We have to leave that up to the
detectives and the medical examiners to determine what, when and how long he’s
been there and how it exactly happened,” Holmes said.
Investigators are ruling out foul
play, but many questions remain. Police hope to get some answers from
surveillance cameras in the area.
A cause of death has not been
determined.
