Panic Over Missing Woman During Church Service In Ogun State
LAGOS OCTOBER 27TH (NEWSRANGERS)-The Ogun State Police Command has said it is investigating the sudden disappearance of a 54-year-old woman, Eno Okon, who allegedly went missing on August 11 while attending the annual programme of a Pentecostal church along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
PUNCH Metro learnt that the woman, who is a resident of Adesan in the Mowe area of the state, offered to follow her neighbour who invited her to the programme.
After some hours into the programme, Eno was said to have told her neighbour she was sitting with that she wanted to visit the restroom.
The neighbour who noticed she did not return after a long time decided to look around for her but could not find her.
While speaking with our correspondent on Wednesday, her husband, Okon, said efforts to locate her whereabouts since then had been futile.
He said, “My wife and I used to live in Lagos before we relocated to Mowe. I was not at home when her neighbour invited her that night. She was also not the only one who followed her, the woman invited other neighbours who followed her to the programme. They all sat together so that they wouldn’t miss each other. When it was around 2am, she told them that she wanted to urinate. When she did not return, they started to look for her. They later thought she had gone home. It was when they got home that they discovered that she was not at home. When I got to know, I went to meet the woman and we went back to the church to look for her. We also went to Sagamu when we thought she mistakenly followed another bus from there.”
Okon said the incident was reported at three different police stations.
