Nollywood actress Biola Bayo has provided a hopeful update regarding the search for veteran actress Jumoke George’s daughter, Adeola, who had been missing for four years.
This news follows Jumoke George’s emotional interview with Biola Bayo, where she revealed that her 41-year-old daughter had disappeared and had not been in contact with her or any family member during that time.
On Wednesday, Biola took to Instagram to share that Adeola has been located in Mali. Although Adeola has yet to speak directly with her mother, reports confirm that she is alive and currently receiving medical attention.
Biola posted, “UPDATE! Adeola has been spotted in Mali. Though she hasn’t spoken with her mom yet, please tell her to call her. She’s currently in the hospital, but she will be happy to speak with her at least. I’ve tried calling her, but she has not been picking up anyone’s calls, and her mom is really worried.”
The Child Rights Campaign (CRC) was responsible for tracing Adeola to Mali. According to the organization, Adeola had left Nigeria in search of better opportunities and is alive, healthy, and pursuing her goals despite being hospitalized.
In another Instagram post, Biola shared a voice call from Adeola. She explained that she lost her phone and became stranded in Mali due to a conflict involving the military and Boko Haram terrorists, which resulted in many deaths. Adeola said she has been stuck in Mali without travel documents or means to return home.
Biola captioned the voice message, “I finally got to speak with Adeola and this is what she said. She hasn’t called her mom but mom is happy she’s alive. @jumoke_george is currently at a state hospital in Lagos, hopefully she’ll be discharged or admitted after all her medical tests and reports, not sure yet.
“Thank you to everyone for the support….The love has been massive. I’m indeed grateful to you all🙏🙏🙏.”
