Latanya Davis last saw her 21-year-old son three weeks ago, and since then, she has hardly slept. Her son, Tafari Campbell, was seen in the community of Kintyre, St Andrew, before he went missing. He was last seen in a white shirt, blue shorts, and a pair of pink puma sneakers.

Davis said she did not realise that her son was missing until Saturday, August 17.

"Him send a WhatsApp message to his girlfriend saying that she should come here, he wants to tell her something. That was the Friday (August 16). The Saturday morning, she came to our house and ask if him sleep down here, and I said no, and she said he didn't come home. We know that he is a person that wake up early and go round, but Sunday evening when we can't see him, we seh 'No, man! Something is wrong'," she said.

"We report that he was missing at the Papine Police Station but we haven't heard anything as yet," she added.

The 35-year-old mother said Campbell, who often does construction jobs, was seen as a role model for his younger siblings. As the first of eight, Davis said that he would often try to steer his siblings in the right direction.

"We talk to all his friends that we know, and they said they don't see him. I don't know where pan the planet him deh. We can't even get him phone.
