The unknown person spoke in Hausa, a local language, before abruptly ending the call. Frantic attempts to reach out again were met with silence, leaving Halima's family deeply concerned about her safety.

Halima’s sister wrote;

“Please my sister is missing, she's a student at the University of Abuja, she went to school today, as she just finished from Electrical Engineering Department late last year, so she's doing project and the rest.
"She called by 3 pm and said that she was on her way back and asking if food is ready and we didn't hear from her till now. We kept calling her number and one person picked at some point and said the owner of this phone is dead, the owner of this phone is dead, started speaking Hausa and dropped the call, then they stopped picking our calls to let us know where they are and all.
