According to our source, when they visited Solid Model College, the children recounted their ordeal, noting that the absence of their parents was affecting their studies. Seun Adepegba, 14,Seyi, 10 and Titilola, 13, had been severed from parental love and care since
infanthood. After waiting for eight years, they seemed to have relinquished all hopes of reuniting with their parents. It was learnt that their tale of sorrow began in 2007 when their father, Mr Segun Adepegba, who had been separated from their mother, enrolled them in the boarding school because he could not afford to take care of them.
According to the proprietor of the school, Mr Samuel Ayegbusi, Adepegba came to enroll them in his school on September 24, 2007 with a promise to always check on them.
He said:

“Mr. Adepegba told me his wife had just left him and that he could not afford to take care of them, being a jobless man. The children were very little. Seyi was two, while Titilola was five.
Mr Adepegba had pleaded with me to accept them in the boarding school. Mr Adepegba’s sister promised to bear the cost of their upkeep. They paid an initial N150, 000 for the three children for the first term.”

Doesn't seem right

Pls just tell me the school has being taking care of them and they have being attending classes all these years. Btw, where is their mother?

This is pathetic!
We never can tell...the man may be long dead(God forbid) if not then τ̲̅ђe man needs to be isolated outta this planet!.. A right sane man can't allow this!

So he never came back? SMH Omasheee ooooo!!! There is no reason (except death) concrete enough to justify this! So who has been paying the fees all these years @Op?

eight good years? that is a very terrible experience. I remember when my parents didn't show up for a visiting day, it was war o. Even when they came, I still cried whenever they were about to leave. How do you then explain eight years of non contact?
the fathers excuse doesn't hold any water. even if you were broke, he couldn't still go to check them once in a while? At least to greet them with say a loaf of bread?
I dunno what to say to a mother that left many kids with her hubby without trying to reach for them in eight good years if she's been alive.
It will take so much for the kids to forgive them both.
