THE much anticipated handover of Ese Oruru, the teenager allegedly abducted from her Bayelsa State has taken place. The 14-year-old was re-united with her mother Wednesday, March 2.
Bisi Kolawole, spokesperson of the Nigerian Police, said the abducted 14 year old Ese, who was kept in police custody and in the Gender and Child Care Protection Unit, underwent medical and psychological check-up after which she was reunited with her parents.
The Force PRO in a short speech read to the media also said an in-house investigation has been launched by the Inspector General of Police to vet the involvement of the Nigerian Police during the abduction period. She said the abductor, Yunusa Dahiru who is in police custody, and all other actors in the abduction will be brought to justice.
Both Ese and her mother, are billed to meet with Solomon Arase, Inspector General of Police before joining a 5pm flight from Abuja to Port Harcourt, en route Bayelsa State. The Force PRO had yesterday told anxious journalists, who waited for several hours at the Police Headquarters in Abuja, that the inability of Ese’s parents to arrive on time led to the postponement of the exercise.
Ese was allegedly abducted eight months ago and moved to Kano for forced marriage. She was freed on Monday night, following a directive by Arase to Mohammed Katsina, commissioner of Police in Kano State.
