Mildred Ebuka, a 17-year-old girl who went missing on Thursday while running errands in Lagos, has been discovered by police in Bauchi State.
According to reports, Ebuka left her Victoria Island home on Thursday to bring a wig hat to her aunt’s acquaintance in the Ikorodu neighbourhood of Lagos.
“She hails from Lagos and speaks English Language fluently. Wore light blue blouse shirt and trouser, fair in complexion and she has no tribal mark.”
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Ahmad Wakili, told The PUNCH on Friday that Mildred was found in a park in Bauchi.
Alkali said, “The essence of sharing the information is to find her parent. She could not remember anything when she arrived Bauchi. A lady woke her up in the park, and she did not know where she was.
“So, they contacted the police, and our public relations office called my attention to it. That was why I made it public.”
However, when newsmen ran a check on the address, it was discovered that the street does not exist.
When contacted, The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, also confirmed that the street did not exist.
He said, “We hope her relatives would reach out when they see her picture.”
