She said, “My daughter was hawking groundnuts when a motorcyclist stopped her very close to our house. He told her that there was a ceremony on the next street where they needed groundnuts. The man told her to send somebody home to tell me to prepare more groundnuts, while my daughter followed him.

“It was the person that my daughter sent home that informed us that the motorcyclist took her away and since then we have been looking for her.”

She said the matter was reported at the office of the Ondo State Security Network Agency, Amotekun, and the Ore Police Station.
