A body that was found near the marina on Saint-Quentin Island in Trois-Rivières, Que., Tuesday morning has been identified as 21-year-old Alexandra Martine Diengo Lumbayi, a Congolese student who was reported missing last week.

Lumbayi, who was studying at the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières, was last seen on the island the afternoon of Oct. 2.

Local police say her body was found in the St. Maurice River by a kayaker around 10:20 a.m. Tuesday. The body was in the water between the property owned by Kruger Wayagamack Inc. and the marina.

The coroner identified Lumbayi Tuesday afternoon, according to Radio-Canada.

Her mother, Rosemine Ndjondo, who lives in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo, reported her missing after not hearing from her for a few days. She posted a video to TikTok over the weekend sounding the alarm around Lumbayi’s disappearance and pleading for help.

“I haven’t been drinking, I’m not eating, I’m not sleeping. I don’t even know how to close my eyes anymore or how to live,” said Ndjondo through tears in the video.

Provincial police had been leading searches for Lumbayi since Friday and continue to investigate the circumstances around her death.

Students and members of the Congolese, Cameroonian and Senegalese community also joined the search efforts on Sunday and were on the island Tuesday morning.
