Former President of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Dr. Dipo Fasina has been found, eight days after he went missing in Turkey.
The Nigerians in Diaspora Commission, in collaboration with the Nigeria High Commission in Turkey, located Dr. Dipo Fasina, who went missing for a few days at Istanbul Airport while connecting a flight back to Nigeria.
Fasina, 76, travelled to Algeria on the invitation of the government but missed his connecting flight from Istanbul, Turkey to Nigeria.
The former ASUU president, known as ‘Jingo,’ was said to have been missing since Saturday, 1 July.
