A nine-year-old boy, Emmanuel Adeyemi, who was reported missing in Lagos State has been found.
Recall that the boy went missing while on an evangelical outreach in Orile-Agege with his father, Olasunkanmi Adeyemi, on November 19, 2023.
Emmanuel was found in an orphanage in Ikotun, Alimosho Local Government Area of the state on Monday, December 19.
It was gathered that the boy was rescued by the officials of the Lagos State Environmental Sanitation Corps, formerly known as “Kick Against Indiscipline”, after he was allegedly dropped off in a tricycle with his eyes covered and people assembled to look at him.
He was thereafter taken to the Ikotun Police Station, Alimosho, Lagos.
Confirming the new development, the boy’s father expressed gratitude to KAI officials.
“I got a call from “KAI” officials on Monday. When I got to their office, I was told that the boy had been found. According to what they told me, the boy was dropped off in a tricycle and many people gathered looking at him. Some of the “KAI” officials who saw the gathering went to the scene and thereafter took him and handed him over to the police,” he narrated.
