As the riddle sorrounding the sudden and shocking disappearance of three children of same parents in Amaoba, Oboro, Ikwuano Local Council of Abia State ,continue to confound watchers, State Governor, Dr Alex Otti, has called on Security Agencies in Abia State and beyond to take all necessary steps to locate and return them unhurt to their parents.
Gideon Osinachi, 8, Divine Osinachi, 6, and Isreal Osinachi, 4, were reported to have gone missing on Friday May 10 2024,while returning from school.
They were said to have been taken away by a commercial motorcyclist after their grandmother had boarded them on the said motorcycle for a return home from school.
Since then, not only have they failed to return home,but also no one has been able to provide an inkling about their whereabouts and condition.
The fate that has befallen the three innocent souls, expectedly, has provoked and continued to elicit wide indignation, and palpable apprehension among many Abians as efforts to track them so far have all been futile .
But rising from an Executive Council meeting on Tuesday May 21, Governor Otti called on security agencies and other relevant bodies to ensure the location and safe return of the three abducted siblings.
The State Commissioner of Information, Prince Okey Kalu, who briefed the Media after the Council Meeting, also, noted that the Governor has reached out to the family members of the abducted children, and assured them of the safe return of their wards.
He, however, cautioned parents and guardians against entrusting their children in the hands of strangers
Governor Otti, according to the Commissioner, also, expressed his solidarity and support to the Amaoba Community and residents of Ikwuano Local Council as they battle with the pains and agony of the abduction of the children.
He promised that all necessary efforts are being made to rescue the siblings unhurt.
Earlier, the Mayor of Ikwuano Local Council, Osinachi Nwaka, had mobilised security operatives ,together with local vigilante groups to locate and rescue the missing children.
But twelve days on, their efforts are yet to yield the expected results, as the abducted children continue to remain in the den of the abductors.
Meanwhile, as efforts are being intensified to track down the abductors and also rescue the missing children, Mayor Nwaka has appealed to individuals with any relevant clue and/or information that may assist in the location and rescue of the abducted children to report to the nearest security formations and/or contact: 08034270914, 08037978707 and 08062598068.
As at the time of reporting, the mother of the missing children is still being attended to at a medical facility in the state for shock-induced ailments.
