Ese may relocate from Bayelsa to accelerate healing process


The rescued 14 year old girl, Ese Oruru, may relocate from Bayelsa State after leaving her temporary abode at the police officers mess in Yenagoa to accelerate her healing  process. Ese was allegedly abducted in Bayelsa State last August and taken to Kano State where she was converted to Islam and was to be married out without the consent of her parents. Ese-Oruru The minor who was rescued and returned to Yenagoa after six months sojourn in the ancient city of Kano is currently sheltered at the magnificent Police Officers Mess at the instance of the police authorities.
Security sources told Saturday Vanguard that the decision to accommodate her at the highly fortified facility was to save her the trauma of having to contend with the army of visitors that would daily throng her parents home. Only the parents and medical team have access to the 14 year old girl at the police facility, which presently serve as her home. Though journalists and other unwanted guests were barred from seeing the teenager, it was gathered that the wife of the state commissioner of police, has been a regular visitor and is also assisting in the counselling process to enable her pick up the pieces of her life. “She is gradually regaining her composure. But she will need to relocate from the state to a place she is not known so that she can start afresh after leaving her temporary abode. “Taking the girl back home may affect her healing process because of the number of people that will be trooping in to catch a glimpse of her,” a security source told Saturday Vanguard.   My daughter is pregnant Notwithstanding the travails of his family and his incessant shuttling between his Opolo residence and the police officers mess, temporary abode of his daughter, Mr. Charles Oruru, father of the rescued girl has remained a calm man. But the strain of the last six months took its toll on him Thursday evening when he showed anger thinking he was being recorded while on phone discussing with a caller about his daughter’s condition. He had said: “the two tests in Kano and Abuja said she is five months pregnant.” In a spur of the moment, he flashed a glare at this reporter fiddling with his phone, thinking his conversation was being recorded. He however put up his usual smile again though with the strain of the last few months telling on his frail frame, when he became convinced his discussion was not being transmitted live. He dashed into his room, put on his jumper and came back saying “it has been a trying moment for us…” On his daughter health condition, he said, “whatever you read in the newspaper is true.”

The gale of defections in the National Assembly last week was followed by an advice from no one else than Sen. Abu Ibrahim that the Senate President Dr. Bukola Saraki as well as the Speaker of the House of Representatives Yakubu Dogara and others in the fold of the All Progressives Congress APC that are still masquerading in the party should resign their membership of the party. This call which also implies that they resign their positions as leaders of the various arms of the National Assembly is yet to be complied with by those concerned as at the time of writing this piece Whatever their reasons for still staying put in the party may be, the fact of the matter is that their continued stay in the party has become a sore which must be extricated from the body.  As I watched through the proceedings of the defections on national television, I wept for the country for producing such leaders that lack morality despite all the party has given them politically which they ordin...
