A widow, Dorothy Dike and her son, Osinachi Ndukwe, were reduced to tears in Lagos when their only vehicle bought at the rate of N1.8.million on hired purchase was being auctioned for N450,000.

In a video making the rounds on social media, PDP Guber candidate Jandor and Funke paid Ndukwe and his mother Dorothy a visit at their home in an undisclosed area in Lagos.

Ndukwe said he bought the vehicle which was impounded at the rate of N1.8 million on hired purchase.
