Delta Teenage Girl Missing After Seizure Of Phone
Police in Warri, Delta, on Thursday declared a 13-year-old girl, Treasure Ofuya, missing. The girl, GreenWhiteGreen GWG reports that the Delta State teenage girl went missing a day after her mother confiscated her phone.
Treasure was last seen on April 30 when she left for her school on Jakpa Road, Effurun, but has since not returned home.
She is 4.5 feet tall, fair in complexion, has no tribal marks and speaks English and Urhobo languages fluently.
“All efforts made to know her whereabouts had proved abortive,’’ acting police spokesman in Delta, DSP Edafe Bright, told newsmen in Warri.
DSP Bright urged anyone with useful information on the whereabouts of the teenager to report to Ekpan Police Division, PPRO’s Office in Asaba or the nearest police station.
Meanwhile, GreenWhiteGreen GWG reports that the mother of the missing girl, Mrs. Faith Ofuya had earlier reported that the girl went missing a day after her phone was confiscated.
Delta Teenage Girl Went Missing After Confiscation Of Phone
Mrs. Ofuya told The Nation that she confiscated Treasure’s phone said:
“She went to school on Wednesday. Although, we had a little issue on Tuesday evening. I took her phone from her. I seized it.
“She’s not supposed to take the phone to school and she’s not supposed to have a SIM. But we noticed that she had a SIM. I was angry with her, so I took the phone.
“On Wednesday, she bathed and went to school at New Era, Jakpa Road. After school, she attends a lesson (extra class) close by, just across the Jakpa Road. But she did not get to the lesson that very day. From school, she left.
“I have reported to Ekpan Police Station. They declared her missing. We made publications and all that. She will be 14 in August”.
The mother, however, could not say if the girl went away because of the phone incident, forced or lured away because of the confiscated phone.
