Two year old girl missing at Mountain of Fire Church service

A two-year-old girl has been reported missing during last Sunday’s service at a Mountain of Fire And Miracle Church branch in Lagos.

The baby identified as Esther Ojo went missing during at the Church’s branch in Agege after she went to make use of the toilet

Speaking to a Punch correspondent, the child’s mother said:

“We went to the church together and I am one of the children’s teachers. As of 12.31pm, we were still together and I was cautioning her not to step on the child sleeping on the bed until someone called me and I left where she was. We were almost through with the second service and I was very busy because I was rounding off the programme. The other teachers told me that Esther said she wanted to urinate and a child of a church worker took her to the toilet. The girl was the one that used to help me with Esther whenever I was busy and Esther was already used to her.

“The girl said she placed my daughter on the potty and left her there when somebody sent her on an errand to buy pure water. When she returned from the errand, I asked after my daughter and she said when she checked her in the toilet, she was not there. Ever since then, we have been looking for Esther. We first reported the case at the Pen Cinema Police Station, and we have also gone to the Area ‘G’ Command and the Force Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, Alagbon. They promised to radio other stations, but they later said they had not heard anything about her.”

Search done to find the missing girl have proven abortive.
