The Guardian reported that his mother, Ms Felicia Chime, lamented that since the case was reported at the police station, nothing concrete had been done, urging Nigerians to contact the family at the sight of Obinna.
  
“The police had assured me of finding my son, but nothing has come out of that. I am appealing to Nigerians to help me look for my son, who has done nothing wrong to anybody,” she said.

Chime, who was said to have left home with some mental problems, was declared missing in the evening of July 3. He is fair in complexion, 5.9-inch-tall, and speaks Igbo and English fluently.
