A family tracing appeal that gained widespread attention across social media and media organizations in Osun and Oyo states has ended in a joyful reunion, as Mr. Alex Afangbedji Awe and his mother, Mrs. Bola Awe, have finally reunited with Mr. Dele Awe after many years apart.
In a message made available to TheCasterNews correspondent, Joseph Oyelami (Super Blessing), it was confirmed that the reunion followed a viral family tracing campaign published by TheCasterNews, shared by Tolulope Joseph on Facebook, aired on Hope FM Ilesa, and featured on Agidigbo TV Ibadan.
