Family members of a medical doctor with the Lagos State Government , Medinat Somuyiwa , are in distress after she went missing on Thursday .
It was gathered that the doctor who resides in Oworonsoki , left home around 5 pm that day for her family house to visit her elder sister at New Garage – a neighbouring community .
Sunday PUNCH learnt that she neither reached her destination nor returned home.
Her husband , Dr Nurudeen Osagie , told our correspondent on Saturday, that the family also searched for her at her workplace at Gbaja Randle Hospital , Surulere , without success .
Osagie added that apart from someone who called in and offered to prepare charms that would make her return home, no one had contacted the family to demand a ransom.
He said , “She said she was going to her family house at New Garage around 5 pm to visit her elder sister . Since then , we have not seen her . It was discovered that she didn ’t get to her sister ’s place . She didn ’t go with her phones . We reported at the Oworoshoki Police Station and they radioed the Lagos Police Command to escalate it.”
The Police Public Relations Officer in the state , DSP Bala Elkana , promised to get back to our correspondent on the incident . He had yet to do so as of 9 pm on Saturday.
