The car was driven away from Toronto in 2022, and Lens never got the chance to know where the thieves took it until he was contacted that it had been found.

The journalist told the car owner on the phone:

"I'm calling from CBC News. We're doing an investigation into stolen vehicles, and I'm pretty sure I'm sitting in your vehicle in West Africa."

Lens responded with surprise after hearing that the thieves took the car some 8,500 kilometres away from where they stole it. A video of the moment was posted on TikTok by the CBC.

Man scammed of N15 million

In a related story, Legit.ng reported that a man sold his cars and land to pay for a Canadian visa.

He paid an agent N15 million to help him work out the travel document.

But it appears his dreams will not come true because the person doing the visa for him has disappeared without a trace.
