Free Ese Oruru by Adara1(m): 8:40pm On Feb 29, 2016
If brother Joseph, a Christian from Rivers State, residing in Kano tricked Mariam, a 13 year old Muslim girl from Kano to Rivers state without the consent of her parents, converted her from Islam to Christianity, change her name from Mariam to Christiana and married her in the church before their pastors, local authorities and congregation. Then, Mariam's parent got to know their darling Mariam is no longer Mariam, she is now Christiana, a Christian married to one brother Joseph in Rivers state, where they now live happily. As parents of the little girl, they took the pain to travel from Kano, all the way to Rivers to get their daughter back, but upon getting to Rivers state , they were denied access to their 13 year old child, saying she is no longer Mariam the little girl, but now Christiana, a wife to brother Joseph whose wedding was done in the full glare of the locals. Every effort through the police and the traditional Council to get the little girl failed, and Maman Mariam had to return to Kano with tears, traumatized, yet without their dear daughter, Mariam. It's now 6 months since former Mariam turned Christiana had been married off to brother Joseph in Rivers and police said they can't do anything about it unless the traditional ruler release the girl by themselves. If this kind of news should break out in Kano, how would the people in Kano react? I mean, what would be the situation currently? Dear friends, I decided to capture the story in this manner for us to truly understand the reverse effect. We are still talking about Ese, the 13 year old girl from Bayelsa state, kidnapped to Kano by one Yusuf. The question we must ask remain as follows : 1. Who gave permission to the Yusuf, who deceitfully carried the 13 year old girl from Bayelsa state to Kano . 2. Under which law, did the local authorities in Kano married her off without the consent of her parents 3. Which religious law, permits the conversation of a minor to another religion , without the consent of her parents 4. Why did the traditional Council refuse to immediately hand over the girl to her parents, when they came for her ? 5. Why did they recognize her conversion to Islam despite knowing she is a minor? 6. Why did they recognize the so called marriage? If this free Ese campaign didn't actually break out in this manner, forcing the return of the girl, does that mean she would continue to be in Kano with the Yusuf? Sad. Let me state that, Until all those involved in this case are adequately prosecuted and punished, this matter shouldn't end with the return of the girl.
