All
over the world, frantic efforts have been made by friends, relatives and loved
ones of missing people in the past. Reported and known cases are taken
seriously and followed up to ensure that they are found. In the developed
countries, experts and forensic anthropologists put in so much effort to
unravel such cases. Painstakingly, the efforts are seen by cataloguing skeletal
remains, putting bone and skull samples together to confirm the status of those
who have disappeared in different circumstances. Even when the answer is
negative the next stage would be to store the evidence in a data of national
missing persons system where medical examiners and the police can have access
to continue the investigations from time to time.
This
is only possible where proper records of missing persons are kept. On the
Interpol website, pictures, age, country, colour of hair, eye and sex of
missing persons are clearly displayed. When the search is consistent, it is
likely that the missing folks are found, most times in locations far away from
home. Some of the frustrating efforts can be found in newspaper advertisement,
public announcements on radio, televisions and posters while relatives throng
police stations to report just to find a clue. Dead or alive? Sadly for many,
there are no words on the status of these missing persons or their whereabouts,
leaving friends, guardians and loved ones frustrated and depressed.
Therefore
in my country Nigeria, with respect to the missing chibok girls, missing soldiers, missing 20 billion dollars and now
missing budgets. All Nigerians are advised
to hold their wives, husband or children. If you are not married please hold
your boyfriend well, if you have any other valuable items like car, house,
phones etc monitor them every minute so that they won’t miss in this country. Citizens
are also advised to start looking for a new state as some state will declare missing
from the map any time soon be warned
