A 16-year-old girl has been declared missing after travelling to Abuja to meet someone she met on Facebook.
Glamtush reports that the family of a 16-year-old identified as Chidinma Anita Chukwudum has declared her missing. Anita resides in Festac town, Lagos state, and was last seen on September 18.
According to reports, her mother Mrs. Uche Chukwudum said Anita finished secondary school this year, wrote JAMB, had a good score, and is about to gain admission into the Lagos State University (LASU). She said Anita secretly packed her bag from their family house on Sunday for Abuja.
Mrs. Chukwudum said it was later discovered that Anita had been chatting with a person on Facebook who promised to take her to Germany for greener pastures. She then decided to pack her bags and moved to Abuja where the person she had been chatting with on Facebook promised to arrange her travel documents for her to leave for Germany.
The distraught mum said Chidinma while leaving the house left a note saying she has gone and will work towards making her family proud.
Mrs. Chukwudum said Anita’s sister was able to gain access to her Facebook account and saw all her chats with the person in Abuja. She said the matter has been reported to the police. She added that security agents have been able to track the area where her daughter is but have been unable to locate the house she is being held.
She says anyone with useful information as to locate her daughter should please call 08033072719 or contact the nearest police station.
