ABUJA—Police
authorities in Abuja yesterday night said Ese Oruru, freed Monday, will now be
officially handed over to her mother, Mrs. Oruru, today.
14
years old Ese Rita Oruru was brought to Police headquarters at Louis Edet House
at about 12.55pm amid tight police protection.
Her
dad, Mr Charles Oruru, however disclosed that he has concluded plans to seek
spiritual assistance from Lagos cleric, Pastor T.B. Joshua, founder of The
Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN). Ese would have been handed over to her
mother yesterday, but for inability of the woman to arrive Abuja by 8.00p.m
last night as she travelled from Yenagoa, Bayelsa State by road.
She
was immediately ushered into the office of the Force Public Relations Officer,
Assistant Commissioner of Police, Olabisi Kolawole, for a debriefing exercise.
Also arrested and brought to Abuja by a Special Police team from Zone 1
headquarters, Kano, led by an Assistant Commissioner of Police, was the
abductor of Ese, Yunusa, alias Yellow. Both the abductor and the abductee were
escorted by three representatives of the Emir of Kano to brief the police
authorities about the roles the Emir and Kano Emirate Council played in getting
Ese released.
At
exactly 1:25pm, the Force Public Relations Officer was seen leading the freed
Ese Oruru to the office of the Inspector General of Police for further
briefing. Attempts by newsmen to talk with Ese were rebuffed as the FPRO
assured that as soon as Ese’s mother, who was being expected from Bayelsa
arrived, the Police will brief the media on the matter by 4pm. Recall that Ese
was abducted by one Yinusa, from her mother’s shop in Yenagoa Local Government
Area of Bayelsa State on August 12, 2015, and whisked away to Kano State
without the consent of her parents.
She
was rescued Monday night, following a directive by the Inspector General of
Police, Solomon Arase, to the Commissioner of Police, Kano State, Mohammed
Katsina, to liaise with the state’s Emirate Council and relevant persons in the
state.
