Female tenants abduct four children in Delta — Report

Ogwashi Uku community in Aniocha south council area of Delta State has been thrown into confusion following the abduction of four children.

 

Reports from the area said residents of Umuokwe quarters are pointing accusing fingers on three women who secured an emergency accommodation in the neighborhood last Monday.

The children are 6-year-old girl, Ebube Nwafido and her sister Miracle, aged three, both of the same parent and two other girls, Chimanda, seven year, and Excel, alias Tinubu, five years, also of another parent.

The women allegedly lured the children on Friday, pretending to buy them biscuits from a popular supermarket in the community.

The ladies had earlier approached Mrs Bose Nwafido, asking whether she could direct them where to secure accommodation.

Nwafido lamented: “last Monday, the three women came asking me for a house to rent. I pointed to a direction but moment later, one of them came back and said she drank Pepsi and zobo and that she was having a running stomach; that I should allow her make use of our toilet.

“I took the lady to back of our house where she defecated in a bush and thereafter she told me she was going to withdraw money from PoS to pay for the accommodation.

“The lady later came back when I left for market and carried my first son, 10-year-old Ifechukwude to know their house and that is how they started showing kindness to children around, unknown to many they had evil plan.”

According to her, she left the children on Friday morning for a program instructing them to play within the compound as usual.

“At about 12 noon, some children came back to say aunty want to buy biscuits for us.”

Further findings revealed that when the children and the other two could not be sighted around the compound after some time, neighbours expressed concern and by the time they visited the ladies’ apartment, neither the occupants nor the children could be found as the room was empty.

Father of Ebube and Miracle, Kingsley Nwafido and the wife, who are heavily traumatized, expressed shock over the sudden disappearance of the children.

The state Police Public Relations Officer SP Bright Edafe confirmed the abduction.

“Investigation is on”, Edafe assured.
