Family members of a missing four-year-old girl, Elo Ogidi, were overjoyed on Friday after she was found in an orphanage in Benin, Edo State.
Elo was reportedly stolen from the Christ Embassy in Oregun, Ikeja, Lagos State, during a church service she attended in company with her parents and their housemaid on Sunday, July 8, 2018.
The girl was with the maid during the church’s children thanksgiving service when she suddenly disappeared.


It was reported that the maid had gone to get Elo and her two siblings some slices of cake shared at the thanksgiving, but did not meet the girl on her seat when she returned.
A child, who also attended the programme, claimed to have seen a woman taking Elo away.

“The police were alerted and she was found at the orphanage this evening (Friday).
