14-year-old
Ese Oruru has been rescued from her captors, and she’s now in the custody of
the Federal Government.
Ese Oruru was abducted
eight months ago from Bayelsa State by a tricycle driver known as Yinusa, a.k.a
Yellow.
Yinusa had taken the girl
to Kano, converted to Islam and forcefully married her.
Following Sunday’s launch
of the “Free Ese” Campaign by Punch Newspapers, the authorities took
action and a series of events led to Ese’s release- which was communicated on
Monday evening by former Minister of Education, Obiageli Ezekwesili.
Thanks to all Nigerians who stood up and fought..
