A Seventeen-year-old male student of the Odogono SHS in Accra, Master Richmond Gyangbe has been reported missing or the past two days.
Richmond Gyangbe who was staying with his parents in Kasoa UN City, left home on Sunday and has since not return.
In an interview with the Father, Mr. Stephen Mensah he revealed that his son left home without any of the family members sacking him or maltreating him in any way.
According to him, Richmond also did not offend any of the family members before he disappeared from the house to unknown destination which at the moment is affecting the family psychologically.
He described his son as a fair coloured boy with a height of about 5.7 feet.
Mr. Mensah noted that his soon left a farewell Message behind before leaving the house to the unknown destination.
He showed the said message to the media which says that he was leaving the house to go and hustle to succeed to help himself and his family in future. Richmond stated further in the note among other things that, he took his father’s Laptop computer away to the unknown destination to support him to feed himself adding that, his sick mother should be taken good care of and to make sure she takes her medication regularly.
In reaction to the laptop issue by his father, he noted that he is not worried at all about the computer because when his son was at home, he always used the laptop, stressing that what he wants is his son to have a positive change of mind and return home.
When the Media asked whether his missing son has a girlfriend or male friends, he responded that his son has neither girlfriend nor many boyfriends.
According to Mr. Mensah who sounded emphatic, his son has no previous criminal record or has he defrauded anyone but he is rather a very obedient and respective boy.
His decision to take such a strange step without informing the family thus came to the family members as a surprise.
His father mentioned that his family members are appealing to the conscience of Richmond to change his mind and come back home from where ever he was going to get successful because the best place for him to be trained to be successful is at school where his parents sent him to, in order to become successful and not a place where no one can trace to see whatever is going on with his life.
The father stressed that his son is intelligent in class since his JHS days at the Gateway Basic School at Kasoa till now at Odogono SHS where he excels in Visual Arts.
“He was also a very good Cadet Corps Member at the Gateway JHS during his days there before entering SHS,” he said.
He said he thinks that his son is naively out of the house because he thinks that he can make it through Music which seems to be his interest.
His Mother, Sister Cynthia Bonney, a trader is also very worried and disturbed as all efforts to trace his lovely son has proved futile for now.
The matter has since been reported to the Kasoa New Market Police who are also struggling to get the whereabouts of Richmond to avoid the repetition of all time popular case of the then missing Takoradi Girls that almost turned Ghana upside down.
