Woman lures, disappears with 2 children during end-of-year carnival
An unidentified woman has vanished into thin air with two children, Ella Fadilat Ajomale and Ashabi Rodiat Bamidele, aged four and two years respectively, in Igando community, Alimosho Local Government Area of Lagos State.
It was gathered that the incident occurred on December 30, 2024.
According to reports, Ella’s mother, Mariam and Ashabi’s mother, Rofiat have been inconsolable since the incident.
In an exclusive chat with newsmen, a landlord in the area, Prince Sulaimon Gbadamosi, said the affected families were his tenants at No. 3A Gbadamosi Street, Igando.
He disclosed that the incident occurred at the Sansan Field in Igando, as the popular end-of-year carnival known as Sansan Carnival was in full swing.
“She was around that very day. Immediately the woman came around, she called the children, and they followed her inside.
“After following her inside, you know how children are, maybe because of the biscuits and sweets; they went back to the woman (suspect). The woman now pretended as if she wanted to send money to the beer parlour owner, one Mariam Obayemi. Even her children were among the kids.

The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) in Lagos, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, is yet to confirm the incident as of press time.
