Considering
that Nigerian police and other law enforcement authorities have refused and or
failed to act to rescue Ese Oruru, the 13year old victim of child abduction,
trafficking and likely defilement/rape from the Palace of the Emir of Kano,
with Nigeria’s Police Chief, in response to a question from journalist as to
when young Ese will be released by her abductors, explicitly stated: "Well, that is dependent on the intervention of the Emir. We have agreed to resolve the matter. I cannot give a timeline".
And considering that this same Emir of Kano enjoys high political privileges with the present ruling junta in Nigeria;
It is timely
for all in diaspora, particularly the countries where this Emir character is
known to frequent (the United Kingdom, the United States, Switzerland and the
Shengen States of Europe) to secure appropriate legal instruments, inclusive of
detention warrants, to ensure the apprehension and likely prosecution of those
who abduct, aide the defilement and generally deny others freedom in Nigeria
whenever they set foot on climes where human dignity, rights and freedoms are
valued.
As this post
was about to be published on 29th February 2016, media reports in
Nigeria confirmed that after over 1 year of the abduction and sexual
enslavement of 13 year old Ese Ohuru, Nigeria’s former Central Bank Czar and
now Islamic head of Kano State, Mr. Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, has ‘ordered’ the
release of the young girl and pronto she is released.
One really
wonders if this is how the release of some other ‘abducted’ girls, inclusive of
those of Chibok will be ordered.
