Enugu State Police Command has disclosed that Kosisochukwu Anioma has been found in Owerri with her boyfriend after she was declared missing in Enugu by her father, a former aide to ex-Governor Chimaroke Nnaman, Frank Anioma.

The command spokesman, Superintendent Ebere Amaraizu, said Anioma had reported on Thursday that his daughter, Kosiso, was on her way to the New Haven market when she got missing.

“Her phone was ringing when we called her number but there was no reply. Thereafter, it went into busy,” Anioma posted.

The police based on the report immediately swung into action where she was traced to Owerri in Imo state. Anioma told police that wasn’t kidnapped but rather went to meet with her boyfriend.

According to Amaraizu, the teenage girl confessed: “I faked kidnap in order for me to travel to Owerri to meet my school boyfriend.”

The police quoted the girl as saying, both of them have been secondary school friends at Abakiliki but she needed to go see him following the prolonged school holiday.

Kosisochukwu, 14, would be in SSS 1 when the school reopens, same with her boyfriend who hails from Owerri in Imo State,’ the police spokesman said.
