Jumoke George's 'trafficked' daughter returns home after 4 years in Mali - TheCable Lifestyle
Last week, in an with fellow actress Biola Bayo, George revealed that Adeola, who is her first child, had been missing for four years.
“I don’t have a home, I don’t have anything and a child of mine is missing,” she had said.
“I am tired. I have tried as a Christian. My first born Adeolu is missing. I’ve been looking for her since the past four years. She clocked 41 years. I’ve been taking care of her children.
“She stays with my mum, but one day my mum called to tell me Deola said she’s coming to Lagos. I said I didn’t see her.
“Later she called me with a strange number. I asked where she is but she asked me to forgive her because she doesn’t know how her journey will end.
“She said her friends told her they should travel to one country in search of greener pastures, but when they got there it was another story. I haven’t heard from her since then.”
Following the interview, Bayo disclosed that Adeola had been spotted in Mali but had yet to contact her mother.
“Please tell her to call her mom, she is currently in the hospital and will be happy to speak with her at least,” .
“I have tried calling her but she has not been picking anyone’s call and her mom is really worried.”
Abike Dabiri-Erewa, chairperson of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM), confirmed Adeola’s return on Monday via a post on X.
Dabiri disclosed that the actress’ daughter was “trafficked” to Mali under the guise of seeking greener pastures.
“Adeola, daughter of popular actress, Jumoke George, who cried out that she had not heard from her daughter in four years is back home from Mali where she was trafficked to,” she wrote.
“Just received her with Biola Adebayo who broke the story and Niyi Johnson.”
