A source close to the family confirmed the development on Tuesday evening, disclosing that the 90-year-old socialite may be dealing with age-related health issues.

The family appealed to the public for help, urging anyone with useful information, no matter how small, to come forward or report to the nearest police station.

She was married to the late Chief T.O.S. Benson from 1962 until his death and has built a distinguished career spanning education, fashion, and corporate administration.
Benson currently runs a fashion and beauty school in Lagos and previously served as a director at Johnson’s Products, the Nigerian subsidiary of the multinational company.
In 2012, she was appointed Honorary Consul of Liberia in Lagos, a role that further reinforced her longstanding ties to both Nigeria and Liberia.
