No Comments

According to a story by Punch, five-year-old girl, Oluwaseun
Ogungbemile, (pictured above) was abducted at the Redemption Camp of
the Redeemed Christian Church of God, on Friday August 9th.


Punch reports:

It was learnt that the girl, in company with her parents, had gone
to the camp at Kilometre 46 on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Ogun
State, to attend the one-week annual convention of the church that
ended on Sunday. The girl, who is the youngest child of her parents,
was last seen playing with two of her cousins on Friday, August 9

The victim's aunt, Omotade Odunowo, told our correspondent that the
matter had been reported to the police.

She said, "She (Oluwaseun) was staying at a rented chalet in the camp
along with her parents. Around 10am on that day, she was seen with two
of her younger cousins, who are between the ages of two and three.

"After sometime, we did not see her again. Due to the young ages of
the little children who were with her at the time of her
disappearance, we have not been able to know what happened exactly."
Odunowo said all efforts to trace the victim's whereabouts proved
abortive and the family believed that she had been abducted.

She said the family had searched every nook and cranny of the camp and
reported to the relevant authorities in RCCG, all to no avail.

She added that no one had called the family to demand a ransom.

Odunowo said, "We have been traumatised since then and cannot wait for
the safe return of our daughter back home. We shall therefore be
extremely grateful to receive any information that may lead to our
reunion with Oluwaseun. She is adorable, smart and talks a lot."
She said the girl's parents had not been alright since the incident.
She said the mother had refused to go back to work since her daughter
went missing.

She said, "Oluwaseun's mother has not left the Redemption Camp since
the incident occurred. She is still hoping that the person that took
her away would bring her back."

When contacted on the telephone, the state police command's Public
Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi, confirmed the incident to our
correspondent, adding that the matter was being investigated at the
Redemption Camp Police Station.
