Four-year-old missing girl at Lagos Christ Embassy found in Benin

Elo Ogidi

Elo Ogidi, a missing four-year-old girl, has been found in an orphanage in Benin, Edo State.
Elo was reportedly stolen from the Christ Embassy in Oregun, Ikeja, Lagos State, during a church service she attended in company with her parents and their housemaid on Sunday, July 8, 2018.
Elo’s father, Okpogene Ogidi, who confirmed the development on Friday, said some suspects were also arrested.
The girl was with the maid during the church’s children thanksgiving service when she suddenly disappeared.
It was reported that the maid had gone to get Elo and her two siblings some slices of cake shared at the thanksgiving, but did not meet the girl on her seat when she returned.
A child, who also attended the programme, claimed to have seen a woman taking Elo away.
The case was reported at the Alausa Police Station and was later transferred to the Anti-Kidnapping Unit of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, Yaba.
It was gathered that the girl was traced to Benin by the police on Friday while some suspects were arrested in connection with her abduction.
