“My sister does not have many friends. She never goes out without telling us where she is going. She never complained about anyone stalking her or any fears.

“We have reported to the police and they are looking for her. We are pleading with Nigerians to join us in prayers and also assist us with any information that will lead to finding her,” Fadesola told our correspondent.
The police have combed the area indicated by the tracker , including a nearby hotel, but she was not found.
