Port Harcourt, Nigeria – The Nigeria Police Force is under increasing pressure to locate the whereabouts of Afiba Abigail Tandoh, a young Ghanaian lady who mysteriously vanished after travelling to Nigeria with her companion.

The unsettling case revolves around Afiba Abigail Tandoh, whose fate remains unknown following her journey to Nigeria accompanied by her Nigerian friend, Celine Ndidum.

There are strong suspicions that Afiba may have fallen victim to kidnappers in the Nigerian commercial city of Aba, located in Abia State.

Afiba Abigail Tandoh, identified by her passport number G3907849, embarked on the trip alongside her Nigerian friend Celine Ndidum to attend a friend’s wedding in Nigeria.

However, alarmingly, Afiba’s whereabouts became uncertain upon her arrival in the country, prompting widespread concern and concerted search efforts to ascertain her well-being.

The wedding they intended to attend was apparently called off, and Afiba’s decision to engage in other business activities led her to a potential perilous situation.

Information reveals the sequence of events leading up to Afiba’s sudden disappearance. Following the unexpected cancellation of the wedding they were to attend, Afiba and Celine rendezvoused with another acquaintance, Adiani Blessing Onyinye, whose wedding was called off at Garden Heights Estate in GRA, Port Harcourt on April 19, 2024.

Subsequently, the pair journeyed to meet Celine’s associate in Aba, Abia State, on April 27, 2024, purportedly for a business engagement centered around pet-related ventures—an area of expertise for Afiba. Promising to return by April 29, Afiba and Celine were last seen at Panyu Hotel and Resort in Abia before their presence became alarmingly absent from public view.

Concern escalated dramatically when, on Sunday, April 28, reports hinted at a possible abduction scenario. An urgent message sent via WhatsApp from Afiba Tandoh’s phone included a live location marker, directing the recipient—a mutual contact in Port Harcourt—to alert the authorities promptly.

In response, the matter was swiftly relayed to the Aba Anti-Kidnapping Squad, urging collaborative efforts with the Nigeria Police Force to expedite search and rescue actions in the pursuit of locating the missing individuals.

Amidst the uncertainty surrounding Afiba Abigail Tandoh’s inexplicable vanishing act in a foreign land, familial distress and official apprehension heighten the urgency to unravel the circumstances underpinning this distressing disappearance.

As waves of speculation ripple through the Ghanaian community, the imperative to track down Afiba and her companion underscores the gravity of safeguarding individuals crossing borders and the vital role law enforcement plays in responding decisively to such poignant cases of missing persons.
