Nigeria: Fatal Walk Into Maternity Home - Seven-Year-Old Girl Mysteriously Disappears!

21 December 2014

All has not been well with Mr and Mrs Ariajiegbe Anthony, indigenes of Ewatto, in Esan South East Local Government Area of Edo State, following the mysterious disappearance of their seven-year-old daughter, Christable. The girl, according to the parents, went missing on November 25 when she walked to a maternity home in the community while playing, but which authorities are denying the claim while the police in the area have refused to listen to their plea to carry out investigation.

The family said they had combed the forest in the community in search of Chistabel, a primary two pupil. In a petition, dated December 1, 2014, and signed by their solicitor, Olayiwola Afolabi, the family cried to the Edo State Police Commissioner, Foluso Adebanjo, to come to their aid by investigating the disappearance of their daughter. They pleaded that the fact that they are poor must not deprive them the opportunity of finding the girl.
