The mother of 14-year-old Ese Oruru has finally reunited
with her daughter in Abuja.
The Tuesday reunion came almost eight months after her
abduction from Bayelsa to Kano State by Yunusa, aka Yellow, a regular customer
at her mother’s food stall, in August last year.
In an exclusive, but brief chat with our correspondent at
about 9.45pm, Ese sounded happy on the telephone.
She said, “Hello,” and laughed when our correspondent spoke
to her.
“How are you?” Our correspondent asked. She laughed and
replied ‘Fine.”
“We are glad you are safe and on your way back home.”
“Who is this,” she asked.
“How was your journey?”
“We have not started the journey, maybe tomorrow,” she said,
probably referring to the onward trip to Bayelsa.
“Hope they treated you well and you are fine?”
“I am not fine,” she said curtly.
“Why?”
She replied, “When I come we should see. I don’t know you.”
“I will be looking forward to meeting you,” our
correspondent replied.
Govs, reps call for Yunusa, accomplice’s trial.
The governors of Kano and Delta states, as well as members
of the House of Representatives on Tuesday demanded the immediate prosecution
of the abductor of 14-year-old Ese Oruru, Yunusa, aka Yellow, who also forced
her into marriage and conversion to Islam.
The minor had on Monday been rescued from Kano State, where
she had been taken to by her pedophile captor, Yunusa, barely 24 hours after a
campaign to free Ese.
