Mother Confronts Phone Repairman, Accuses Him of Kidnapping Her Daughter

A dramatic scene unfolded at a phone repair shop when a worried mother stormed in, accusing the repairman of abducting her daughter who had left home hours earlier to fix her phone and hadn't returned.

The incident was captured in a video shared on TikTok by the repairman, @chukwukao0, who posted footage of the heated confrontation. In the video, the visibly distressed woman grabs the repairman’s shirt and demands to know her daughter’s whereabouts, claiming the girl left around 5 p.m. and hadn’t been seen since.

"She’s never stayed out this long since she was born,” the mother exclaimed in Pidgin English, showing deep concern. Despite the repairman’s attempts to explain, she insisted he accompany her to his house to prove her daughter wasn't there.

The video has since gone viral, drawing widespread attention and mixed reactions online. Some users commended the repairman for staying calm, while others suggested the mother should have gone to the police first.
