#FreeEse: Abducted Teenager Allegedly Released

Reports are flying in that the abducted 14-year-old Bayelsa girl who was converted into Islam and forced into marriage by one of her mother's customers from Kano has been released and handed over to the police.

Ese's father, Charles, earlier told Vanguard:

“If they bring my daughter back successfully I will be very happy. As the father, I am like a fish out of water. I have not been myself since she was forcibly taken away.

“When ever I think of her I shed tears. She is only minor she was taken away when she was 13 year old but as I speak with you she is now 14 year. I don’t have many children and the few I have I make sure I take good care of them because I know they will be great in future if they are given good education.”
