An alleged notorious figure wanted by security agencies has been apprehended by Interpol in Nigeria to aid investigations into the disappearance of a Ghanaian lady and her friend.
Significant developments have emerged pointing towards suspect Andrew Otchipo, a 52-year-old British Nigerian with deep connections in Nigeria.
Afiba Abigail Tandoh, a wedding guest has been missing for a month now, along with her Nigerian friend Celine Chidinma Ndidum.
The Close Circuit Camera (CCTV) footage from the hotel where the trio met has provided crucial evidence linking the suspect to the missing girls.
Personal belongings such as the ladies’ handbags and ATM cards were found in his residence.
Despite this breakthrough, authorities are facing challenges in extracting information from Otchipo regarding the whereabouts of Afiba and Celine.
The Ghanaian government, deeply concerned about the welfare of its citizens, has instructed the Consulate in Nigeria to intensify efforts to locate the missing individuals.
Meanwhile, pressure is mounting on the Nigerian Police Force to expedite the search for Afiba and Celine, whose sudden disappearance has raised alarm in both countries.
