THE missing local person being published in Island Sun’s last Saturday, Issue 2984, known as Mr Steward Ruai has been found after going missing for eight days.

He was found around 6pm last week Thursday by a local woman along the main vehicle road at Reko (heading up Northeast Guadalcanal side) in which they kept him with wonder all through the past days where he might had went from and not until they saw his photo in front of the newspaper.

The local woman who is reported to be part South Malaita and Guadalcanal Province quickly noticed Mr Steward as he was not a person from that area and led him to a village local at Reko who with his family took good care of him.

“Mr Steward was looked after well by the locals until they saw the missing person on the Island Sun newspaper before contacting Mr Steward’s family on Tuesday 21st August (yesterday) seeing them pick him up later in the evening being in good health,” said report.

Mr Steve Ruhasia, one of Stewards family member said on behalf of their family, they want to convey their gratitude to the locals and the people of Reko for finding and taking good care of Steward.

“Also to the Island Sun and all those who had helped in search for Steward from the day he was missing,” said Steve.
