Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State yesterday said efforts were still on to investigate the disappearance of the famous broadcaster, Alhaji Aremu Gawat, saying his file was not closed yet.
Gawat was declared missing on July 10, 2012 after his vehicle was found around Apongbon area of Lagos.
Responding to questions raised by journalists after the fifth Kafaru Oluwole Tinubu Memorial Ramadan Lecture held at the LTV8 Blue Roof, Agidingbi, Fashola said search for the broadcaster was still on.
He said: “We will continue to search our files, our files are not closed. We will continue to review with the security agents especially the police.
“We remain positive that until we find proof to the contrary, we are hopeful that he is alive and investigations therefore continue.”
The governor, who absolved government of any complicity in the rate of insecurity confronting the country, said parents also had a greater role to play in the nation building through the kind of trainings impacted on their children.
He added that those terrorising the country were products of some families.
Fashola said that instead of blaming the government for security lapses, people should also critically look at their families and observe the training given to their children.
