Teenager missing in UK after travelling from Ireland to pursue her career dreams
The sister of a missing woman has issued an urgent public plea to help find her.
Keren Masanka, 19, and originally from Dublin, has not been seen in her London home since January 9.
Her sister Ketsia vowed in a heartrending Instagram post that she would "go above and beyond" to find her missing sibling who said "help me" on a call home.
Posting on Instagram, she wrote: "I usually don’t post stuff like this on my insta but it’s my sister (Swipe for a better look of Keren) and I’ll go above and beyond to find her and get her home where she is safe.
Sister Ketsia made a direct appeal online (Ketsia Masanka)"I went to the Garda and everything rang up places around where she lives too. The last phone call to me was 3:26am and to my mam around 7am. She wasn’t herself and outside and that’s nothing like her. She said, “help me help me”.

Ketsia explain her family were "sick to the stomach" wondering where Keren is and she appealed for "anyone that lives between Stratford-Dalston Lane please contact me personally."
Keren is around 5'4 and based around the Stratford area of East London and was last seen between East India Docks in Blackwall and Kennington.
Supportive comments on Keren's post have since appeared and one said they were "wishing the best for you and all your family."
Another wrote: "Oh God please I pray she returns safely in Jesus name."
In an additional post, Ketsia wrote: "I know I haven't said this much in the last few days but... I honestly from the bottom of my heart appreciate everyone's love and support.
"My family and I are grateful for each and every one of yous that reached out, shared, called, visited the fam, prayed with us...
"In times like this we don't give up as I know my sister will be home I have hope and I'm not losing it. Believe it or not I'm at peace because God is with me and within my sister.
