Cosmas Chukwu, Enugu
Residents of Amagu Akegbe Ugwu in Awkunanaw, Nkanu West Local Government Area of Enugu State, have been thrown into anxiety following reports that three young siblings disappeared from their home while their mother was away at the market.
The missing children, identified as Wisdom Chinedu, eight; Divine Chinedu, four; and their two-year-old sister, Chikanyima Chinedu, were reportedly left at home when their mother, Mrs Ifesinchi Onyibe, went to Gariki Market.
According to a report by News Express, the mother returned from the market alongside her husband, Mr Chinedu, who had just returned from work, only to discover that the children were missing.
The circumstances surrounding their disappearance remain unclear, while efforts by family members and residents to establish their whereabouts have reportedly yielded no results.
The family, which hails from Ezza Mgbo in Ohaukwu Local Government Area of Ebonyi State, lives in a rented apartment in a compound reportedly owned by one Ifeoma Ekwutos.
The disappearance has reportedly unsettled the neighbourhood, with residents expressing concern over the safety of children and the circumstances in which the three siblings went missing.
An appeal circulating online urged members of the public to provide information that could assist in locating the children and securing their safe return.
The family provided 08028907041 as its contact number and 08045900787 as a police contact for information about the missing siblings.
However, the precise circumstances of the children’s disappearance, including whether there were signs of forced entry or possible abduction, were not established in the report.
The Enugu State Police Command should confirm whether a formal complaint has been lodged, the circumstances surrounding the disappearance and the measures being taken to locate the children.
For a better society
