Aminat Oyediji |
A Lagos-based children’s home,
Compassionate Orphanage, has appealed to the public for information that
would help to locate an 18-year-old girl, Aminat Oyediji, who went
missing while under its care in 2014.
According to the Project Manager of the
orphanage, Ms. Patricia Muzan, Aminat left its premises at Greenland
Estate, around Idowu-Egba Bus Stop, Isheri-Olofin, Lagos for school on
March 12, 2014 in company with other girls but never returned.
After a frantic effort to locate the
girl when she did not return home after school closing hours, Founder of
the orphanage, Reverend Gabriel Oyediji reported her missing at the
Idimu Police Division.
A police report on the case indicated an investigation was carried out on the missing girl.
“The
Lagos Child Rights Law stipulates that no child should be in custody of
an orphanage without the custodial backing of the family court so a
file was opened on her case there.”
The orphanage has appealed to the public for any information that may help it locate the girl.
The orphanage can be reached on
08020555515. Members of the public can also approach the nearest police
station to give any useful information on her whereabouts.
Share your thoughts.....thanks!
