Missing National Youth Service Corps member and lawyer, Eunice Ameh, has been found safe days after she was declared missing in Abuja, bringing relief to her family and colleagues.
A family source confirmed on Sunday, May 10, 2026, that she was found unharmed. “Eunice has been found unharmed this morning (Sunday),” the source said, adding that details of her location and how she was found remain undisclosed.
Before she was found, she was reported missing at the Maitama Police Division and the NYSC was notified. A family source had earlier said, “She works at Lake Chad Crescent with the company Blades and Butchers in Maitama.
The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) also raised alarm, issuing a statement titled “Release Eunice Ameh Now!” NBA President Afam Osigwe said, “When a young lawyer goes missing, the pain is not distant to the Nigerian Bar Association, it is personal,” and added, “We are more than a professional body; we are a community bound by shared sacrifice, shared dreams, and a collective duty to stand for one another.”
The NBA further urged authorities, stating, “No young Nigerian who answered the call to national service should disappear without an immediate, coordinated, and determined response from our security agencies,” and called on the Inspector General of Police to act swiftly.
