Seven years old Olumide Basorun has cried out to Lagos, Ogun and federal governments to assist her locate her mother, who was kidnapped last Tuesday at Ikorodu, Lagos.
Olumide’s mother, Mrs Gbemisola Basorun, 38, was kidnapped by four unknown men at the entrance of her home at 5, Basorun Abimbola St., Agodo-Alara via Odogunyan/Ikorodu, on her way from a church service around 8p.m.
According to the primary four pupil,
the mother of two, who was driving home in her Pathfinder SUV, with number
plates KTU 476 CM, was with her children after evening service, when she
noticed that four strange men were trailing her on a motorcycle.
She stopped at a neighbour’s shop to
report her observation, was assured of her safety, but charged to notify others
of de-velopment when she got home.
Olumide said while the discussion
was ongoing, the men drove past the Basoruns, which heightened their fear.
Their assailants hid somewhere, only to resurface when Olumide alighted from the car to open the gate for her mother.
Olumide said: “The okada came
out from nowhere, blocked our car and three of them alighted. One of them
pointed a gun at my mother and ordered her to the back seat.
“They threw out my younger brother.
While two of them sat with my mother, one took over the driver’s seat and both
the car and okada sped off.”
