ANOTHER pupil has gone missing in Bulawayo after she left home for church two weeks ago.
The 14-year-old Lobengula suburb girl, who is in Form Two at Lobengula Secondary School left home on February 21 for church near her home and has not been seen ever since.
Promise Dube told The Chronicle that her daughter, Shamilla Dube, left home wearing a white dress and a pair of brown sandals, but did not return.
“She left home at around 10AM on February 21 and she never came back. I’ve asked her relatives and her friends about her whereabouts, but they told me that they never saw her. She’s brown in complexion and she’s of medium height,” she said
Dube said she reported Shamilla’s disappearance at Luveve police station.
“She’s my only child and she’s the one who usually assists me with house chores as I’m disabled. I’m worried about her well-being,” she said.
Dube said she had not asked her daughter which church she was going to attend as she left home that day.
Anyone with information on the missing girl can contact the nearest police station or her mother on 0713263770.
Early this year a 17-year-old girl from Malindela suburb was reported missing after she left home for school.
Last year more than six pupils from Bulawayo’s Mbundane, Emganwini and Nkulumane suburbs were reported missing.
The others have not been found, but one of them was found at United Bulawayo Hospitals after spending more than a month in the institution’s Intensive care unit.
He could not talk after he was allegedly involved in an accident and police managed to trace his family through a missing person appeal that appeared in The Chronicle.
