Aikolu, a Primary One pupil at Ngoma Church of Uganda Primary School, went missing. Aikolu was travelling to school when she was persuaded by a stranger to help slaughter chickens. Allegedly, the stranger gave 2,000 Shillings to two boys accompanying Aikolu before leading her into the nearby jungle.
When Aikolu failed to return, her classmates informed her parents, who promptly alerted the local council I chairperson.
According to police reports, she lived with her father and stepmother following the separation of her biological parents.
