Two managers of hotels in Osun State where a nurse who had been declared missing in Lagos was found, have been brought in for investigation, Police say.
Ayomide Alao, 28, had left her house on June 14, for her workplace in Lagos but did not return home and calls to her phone went unanswered. The situation prompted her family to begin search for her and informed the Police, according to the Punch.
The Police Division at Bariga launched an investigation into her disappearance after her brother reported her missing.
Investigation by the Police led to a hotel in Osun State where she was found. She said she did not know how she got there. Hotel managers said she was not accompanied by anyone when she lodged.
“She didn’t give a concrete reason as to why she left home; she just said she went out and all of a sudden found herself there without any explanation as to how she got to the hotel. She refused to pick her calls while in the hotel,” the Punch quoted a source as saying.
In a statement by the Police spokesperson in Lagos, Bala Elkana, Ms Alao stayed in two hotels for 14 days and that the case had been transferred to Area H Command for further investigation.
“A case of missing person was reported at the charge room on June 16, 2020, around 10:40am by one Olabunmi Alao, of No 3, Amudat Abeke Street, Ajenipa, Ladi-Lak, Bariga, Lagos State, that his sister, Ayomide Alao, 28… left home on june 14, 2020, around 8:30pm and did not return home,” Elkana said.
“All efforts to trace her by the family proved abortive. During investigation, the missing nurse has located detectives on July 3, 2020, at the Jolade Hotel in Ipetumodu-Okoko in Osun State.
“The managers of the Anis Hotel and the Jolade Hotel, where she stayed for 14 days while at Ipetumodu-Okoko town in Osun State, were also brought in with a view to establish their level of culpability or otherwise,” the Police stated.
