By Tata Mbunwe

After nearly one month of searching, the family of Assaba Velma Newah, a 24-year-old girl who was reported missing in Limbe, discovered her corpse at the mortuary Friday, April 7.

One of her relatives told MMI they were called on Friday, after the mortuary attendants saw Velma’s picture and details posted on Mimi Mefo Info Facebook page.

“Thank you very much Mimi, somebody called me yesterday after the missing person alert MMI posted… She was knocked down that same night that she disappeared. She was crushed by a camion at Church Street at about 10pm,” the relative told MMI CEO, Mimi Mefo on Saturday, April 8.

Her picture and personal information was posted on MMI social media handles on Friday morning and a few hours later, the family was called and told to come to the Limbe hospital mortuary and verify her corpse.

Assaba Velma went missing on March 9 and her family never knew her whereabouts until April 8.

In tracking her phone number, the police told her family she was in Limbe, but her exact location could not be ascertained.

Unknown persons had rushed her corpse to the Limbe Regional Hospital mortuary after she was killed by a truck.
