Emir Sanusi has no hands in Ese’s abduction – Police

Emir Sanusi has no hands in Ese’s abduction – Police

The Zonal Command of the Nigeria Police Force in Kano State has exonorated the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Muhammad Sanusi II of any wrongdoing in the abduction saga of Miss Ese Oruru.
Police confirmed receipt of a request letter from the monarch to return the girl back to her parents in Bayelsa, Yenogoa.

At a press conference yesterday, convened by the Assistant Inspector General of Police, Zone 1, Mr. Shuaibu Lawal Gambo, the police observed that, “the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Muhammad Sanusi had indeed directed that the abducted girl, Miss Ese Oruru, be returned to her parents in Bayelsa State, as far back as August, 2015.”
Gambo told newsmen that, “information, as obtained from my predecessor, Assistant Inspector General of Police, Mr. Tambari Yabo, confirmed that the Emir actually sent a delegation, made up of some members of the Sharia’ah Commission and a representative of the Emirate Council, with a letter requesting the police to take back the girl to her parents.

“The delegation, in the company of the girl, arrived very late in the evening to the Zone, as a result of which it was rightfully agreed by all parties to bring her back the following day so as to implement the request of the monarch.

“Given the benefit of hindsight, it is evident that there was a failure of communication as the delegation never returned with the girl for onward transportation to her family and no further report of complaint, whatsoever, was received in respect of the case.

“On the part of the zone, when it did not hear from the delegation, it innocently presumed that the case might have been resolved by the Sharia’ah Commission, which as you know, is also empowered to adopt alternative dispute resolution measures in cases of this nature.”
He stated categorically that, “Arase was never in the picture of this case until Sunday morning when the matter was reported in the media.”

He concluded that, “in normal circumstance, a case of abduction does not necessarily require his attention. This is because it is well within the competence of the Assistant Inspector General of Police or even the Commissioner of Police in the state to handle.

“Besides, this case was never officially reported to the zone or to the Kano State Police Command, by either the parents or the guardians of the abducted girl.”
