The family of a teenager, Imole Ilesanmi, has raised the alarm over her whereabouts after she reportedly went missing in the Agbado area of Ogun State
Imole was said to have gone missing around 3pm on Sunday, September 20, 2026, after she left her family home.
Speaking exclusively with Punch Metro on Sunday, Imole’s father said she was at home when he asked her to prepare food for him.
He said the family later learnt that she planned to visit a cleric in the Popóshóla area after cooking.
“She went missing on Sunday around 3pm. She was at home and I asked her to cook for me. The information we got was that she said she wanted to go and see an Alfa in that area after cooking. Since then, we have not heard from her.
“We have been calling her line. It was ringing from Sunday until Monday morning, but nobody answered. Her friends and some people we asked also said she mentioned that she was going towards that area,” he said.
The father said the matter was reported at the Agbado Police Station, adding that the cleric was initially arrested but later released.
He said the family was concerned about the cleric’s release because they believed he could provide information that might help establish Imole’s whereabouts.
According to him, several people directed the family to the area where the cleric lived, while some residents also claimed to have seen Imole around the neighbourhood.
However, the cleric, identified simply as Alfa, denied knowing the teenager’s whereabouts, saying she did not visit his residence on the day she disappeared.
