An oracle consulted on the whereabouts of two children who were taken away by their father’s tenants has told the parents that the children and their abductors are in the bush.
The two children identified as Amanda and Christabel were taken to an unknown destination by two woman identified as Mercy and Rose.
Mercy and Rose had barely spent three weeks in Utese village when they vanished with the children left in their care by their mother who went to the stream to fetch water.
A relative who gave her name as Beauty said a search party has been in the bush since Tuesday looking for the children.
She said the oracle said the abductors have not taken the children out of the bush.
“People are in the bush. The oracle said the children and the women are in the bush but they have not been seen since Tuesday.”
State Police Commissioner, Babatunde Kokumo, said the two women will soon be arrested.
Kokumo assured that the children would be rescued unhurt.
