Rivers: Police rescue 12-year-old girl from forest

Police have rescued a 12-year-old girl, Franklyn Chioma-Blessing, who was declared missing in Port Harcourt this week.

Chioma-Blessing was rescued from a forest in Igboo-Kingdom, Etche Local Government Area of Rivers State.

She was reported to have left her house on Thursday for school but never got to the school.

DAILY POST gathered that earlier on Saturday; operatives of the Nigeria Police stormed a forest in Igboo-Etche where the victim was rescued.

It is unclear if Chioma-Blessing was kidnapped for ransom or for other reasons.

The state Police Command has promised to brief journalists on the development.

Igbo-Etche has been touted to be a destination of kidnappers in the state, as several persons kidnapped have been rescued from there.
