Veteran actress Jumoke George’s daughter, Adeola, who was trafficked to Mali four years ago, has finally returned to Nigeria.
George had emotionally revealed her daughter’s disappearance during an interview on Biola Adebayo’s YouTube podcast, Talk to B.
Adeola was said to be living with her grandmother in Ibadan before she left for Mali under unclear circumstances.
Following her outcry, the Chairman of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM), Abike Dabiri-Erewa, alongside actress Biola Bayo, intervened to facilitate Adeola’s safe return.
Dabiri-Erewa confirmed Adeola’s arrival in Nigeria via a tweet on Monday. She was warmly received by Biola Bayo, actor Adeniyi Johnson, and Dabiri-Erewa herself.
She wrote on X: “Breaking!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 .Just received her , with Biola Adebayo who broke the story and Niyi Johnson.
