Makeup artist goes missing

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that Anu Agbalaya’s family members were saddened after they could not find their 23-year-old makeup artist who went missing after she went out to give home service to a client in Ikorudu.

It was gathered that the lady went out to fix the person's nails on Wednesday, July 7. From that moment, her phone had been switched off and efforts to locate her proved abortive.

When Anu’s family got the number of the client, the person claimed that the makeup artist had left her residence.
