The police disclosing this in a statement on Friday said the girl boarded a bus not far from her house in Victoria Island (V.I) to deliver a hair extension to her aunt’s friend in Ikorodu and from there she got missing.
“Mildred Joshua Ebuka”, a 17-year-old girl, had left her home in Victoria Island, Lagos on Thursday to deliver a wig cap to her aunt’s friend in Ikorodu.
“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 spokesperson, Ahmed Mohammed Wakil.
In a subsequent post on Twitter, the Bauchi police notified the girl’s parent of her whereabouts.
“It is with utmost gratitude to GOD Almighty that Bauchi State Command have located the parent of (Mildred Joshua Ebuka) not her real name, her name is Jenifer Joshua Anga and presently she will be reunited with her family in good health condition. Thank you for your patriotism,” the Twitter post read.
